Solving Multi-Step Linear Equations: Sample FAST Questions

Multi-step linear equations are the core 8th grade algebra skill: distribute, combine like terms, collect variables on one side, and solve. Students also classify equations that finish with one solution, no solution, or infinitely many solutions.

How the FAST tests this benchmark

FAST items lean on the equation editor for the value of the variable, with multiple choice items for the solution-count question. When both sides simplify to the same statement the answer is infinitely many, and when they contradict, as in 0 = 3, there is no solution.

Skills students need

  • Solve equations with variables on both sides
  • Distribute and combine like terms before solving
  • Solve equations with fraction and decimal coefficients
  • Determine whether an equation has one, no, or infinitely many solutions
