function
the smallest mathematical unit, usually a number, a variable, or a product of numbers and variables
inverse function
a group of terms joined by operations, a mathematical phrase
expression
a process that takes (usually two) terms and produces a result; common ones include addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division
equation
to assign a numerical value to, usually by substituting a numerical value for any variables in an expression
evaluate
an operation that assigns an output to each input
term

Match the functions/operations with their inverses.

Draggable itemCorresponding Item
f(x) = 3x + 2
addition
multiplication
division
f(x) = 3x
f-1(x) = x/3
subtraction
f-1(x) = x + 3
f(x) = 3(x+2)
f-1(x) = \frac{1}{3}x-2
f(x) = x - 3
f-1(x) = \frac{x-2}{3}

Solve the equation.

|2x+5|= 7

Use x={#, #} format, with exactly one space after the comma. List the smaller number first. If there is only one solution, use x={#} format. If there are no solutions, type "no solution" with no quote marks.

1

Solve the equation.

|15 - \frac{2}{3}x|=5

Use x={#, #} format, with exactly one space after the comma. List the smaller number first. If there is only one solution, use x={#} format. If there are no solutions, type "no solution" with no quote marks.

Solve the equation.

5-\frac{1}{2}|x|=10

Use x={#, #} format, with exactly one space after the comma. List the smaller number first. If there is only one solution, use x={#} format. If there are no solutions, type "no solution" with no quote marks.

Solve the equation.

\frac{|x+3|}{-2}=-4

Use x={#, #} format, with exactly one space after the comma. List the smaller number first. If there is only one solution, use x={#} format. If there are no solutions, type "no solution" with no quote marks.
