Answers and reasoning

Reveal the teacher answer key
  1. -4 < 0 < 3; unit steps

    Negative -4 is left of or below 0; 3 is right of or above 0. Use equal intervals.

  2. <

    -5 < -3; greater numbers lie farther right.

  3. Quadrant II

    Move 3 left, then 2 up.

  4. 11 units

    Only one coordinate changes. Opposite sides of 0: 7 + 4 = 11.

  5. 4 × 4 × 4 × 4 = 256

    The exponent counts 4 factors of 4; multiply all factors.

  6. 3 × 3 = 9

    The exponent counts 2 factors of 3; multiply all factors.

  7. 14

    Use parentheses and exponents first, then × and ÷ left to right, then + and -. Result: 14.

  8. 250

    Use parentheses and exponents first, then × and ÷ left to right, then + and -. Result: 250.

  9. Terms 2x, 2y, 3; coefficients 2, 2; constant 3

    Terms are separated by addition; coefficients multiply variables.

  10. 5(x + 6)

    Group the sum before multiplying.

  11. 2(x + 4)

    Group the sum before multiplying.

  12. 60

    Substitute first: 6^2 + 6 × 4 = 60.

  13. 40

    Substitute first: 2^2 + 6 × 6 = 40.

  14. 15x + 15; both give 45 at x = 2

    Multiply the outside factor by every inside term, including the constant.

  15. 10x + 16

    Add coefficients of x terms; add only constants to constants. Distribute first if needed.

  16. Yes; distribution gives 3x + 9

    3(x + 3) = 3x + 9. This matches.

  17. 5 × 5 × 5 = 125; 5 × 3 = 15

    The exponent counts 3 factors of 5; multiply all factors.

  18. 4 × 4 × 4 × 4 = 256; 4 × 4 = 16

    The exponent counts 4 factors of 4; multiply all factors.

  19. 46

    Use parentheses and exponents first, then × and ÷ left to right, then + and -. Result: 46.

  20. 81

    Use parentheses and exponents first, then × and ÷ left to right, then + and -. Result: 81.
