  14. Find the value of x that makes this equation true: 2(x – 10) = 7

  15. Quiz BowlRound 2: Multiple Answers Round 2 will consist of 3 questions that each have multiple answers. Each team will earn 1 point for each correct answer and 1 bonus point if the team provides all of the possible answers or the number of possible answers.

  16. 4 plastic beads are arranged to make a bracelet. Here you see 3 different views of the same bracelet. List all the different bracelets that could be made with these 4 beads (including the bracelet in the picture).

  17. Solution • RBYG or BRGY (this is the given bracelet) • or BYGR or YBRG • or YGRB or GYBR • or GRBY or RGYB • RYBG or YRGB • or YBGR or BYRG • or BGRY or GBYR • or GRYB or RGBY • RBGY or BRYG • or BGYR or GBRY • or GYRB or YGBR • or YRBG or RYGB

  19. Solution • 1: 1 • 4: 1, 2, 4 • 9: 1, 3, 9 • 16: 1, 2, 4, 8, 16 • 25: 1, 5, 25

  24. Solution • Anything multiplied by 0 is 0, so the answer is 0.

  25. F: Find the sum: -9 + -8 + -7 + -6 + -5 + -4 + -3 + -2 + -1 + 0 + 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 + 6 + 7 + 8 + 9

  26. Solution • Still zero… just make pairs of the positive and negative numbers.

  27. Q: Solve for x 3(x + 10) = 5(x + 10)

  28. Solution • 3 (___) = 5 (___) can only be true when both sides equal 0 • Therefore, x + 10 must equal 0 • So x = -10

  29. F: Solve for x 3(x + 10) + 2 = 5(x + 10)

  30. Solution • 3 somethings is 2 less than 5 somethings • I know 3 ones is 2 less than 5 ones • The statement will be true if (x + 10) = 1 • x = -9
