A note on the way questions are asked:
As you know, when asked to "solve" for x, you can plug the answers back into the problem to see if you get a true statement.  To avoid plugging in to find a correct choice on a multiple choice test (to force you to actually solve the problem algebraically), we sometimes ask you to "find the sum of the solutions" or "find the product of the solutions" or simply "how many solutions".
