  1. Using the formula 3m = 20x + 12y, if x = 3 and y = 9, what calculation would find m?
  2. Using the formula 2m = 14x + y, if x = 8 and y = 5, what calculation would find m?
  3. Using the formula x = 3a + t^2, if a = 5 and t = 6, what calculation would find x?
  4. Using the formula x = 3a + t^2, if a = 3 and t = 1, what calculation would find x?
  5. Rearrange 3m + t + 12 = 14g to make t the subject
  6. Rearrange 3m - 5 = 14g - w to make w the subject
  7. What are the values of x that solve 2x^2 + 12x + 10 = 0 ? (answer in the form "a,b")
  8. What are the values of x that solve x^2 - 6x + 8 = 0 ? (answer in the form "a,b")
  9. What are the values of x that solve 3x^2 + 9x - 12 = 0 ? (answer in the form "a,b")
  10. What are the values of x that solve x^2 + 4x - 21 = 0 ? (answer in the form "a,b")
  11. What are the values of x that solve x^2 + 10x + 16 = 0 ? (answer in the form "a,b")
  12. What are the values of x that solve x^2 + 6x + 8 = 0 ? (answer in the form "a,b")
