SHORT ANSWER. Write the word or phrase that best completes each
statement or answers the question. Provide an appropriate response.
26) Your friend solves an equation as follows:
x - 29 = 32
x = 32 - 29
x=3
Did your friend make a mistake? If so, identify the mistake and provide a correct
solution.
Answer: Yes, the friend did make a mistake. She should have added 29 to both sides of
the equation. The correct solution should be x = 61.
Did your friend make a mistake? If so, identify the mistake and provide a correct
solution.
Answer: Yes, the friend did make a mistake. He should have multiplied by 9 on both
sides of the equation. The
5
correct solution should be x = 36 .

28) What is the first step to solve an equation in the form b + x = a? What is
the solution of the equation? Answer: The first step is to add (- b) to both
sides of the equation. The solution will be x = a + (- b).
29) Whatis the first step to solve an equation in the form a x = c ? What is the solution of
the equation?

THE PRIVATE ENTRANCE
TO THE
IMPERIAL PALACE, PEKING
THE ENTRANCE TO THE
BRITISH LEGATION.
Made more than a thousand years ago, it must have been a gigantic
work at the time of its construction. It was paved throughout with
rough stone flags for about eight feet, or about half its width, and
planted with cedars. It is now very much out of repair, as are most
things in China, the flags disappearing now and again for long
distances; but it is still the object of much official attention, and every
year certain magistrates inspect it and count the cedars, every one
of which is sealed with the Imperial seal. Many of the trees have
died, but many still survive and are grand objects by the roadside.

Although so risky to life and limb, the mule cart is the more
fashionable mode of moving from place to place in Manchuria. The
poorer people ride on asses, with their belongings slung about in the
manner shown in the picture.
