Question

a) d) 5x-3-(x-1)=2x+5 g) 4x + 1 = 7x-3-(x-1) b)2-5-(x-3) = 17-5x e) 4-5-(x-2) = 14-5x h) 5-3-(x-3) = 14 - 3x c) x+6=4x-3-(x-2) f) 4x + 5 = 6x-2-(x-3)​

Answer 1

d) 5x-3-(x-1)=2x+5

5x-3-x+1=2x+5

5x-x-2x=5+3-1

2x=7

x=7/2

g) 4x + 1 = 7x-3-(x-1)

4x+1=7x-3-x+1

4x-7x+x=-3+1-1

-2x=-1

x=1/2

b)2-5-(x-3) = 17-5x

2-5-x+3=17-5x

2-5+3-17=-5x+x

-17=-4x

x=17/4

e) 4-5-(x-2) = 14-5x

4-5-x+2=14-5x

-1-x+2=14-5x

-x+5x=14+1-2

4x=13

x=13/4

h) 5-3-(x-3) = 14 - 3x

5-3-x+3=14-3x

5-x=14-3x

-x+3x=14-5

2x=9

x=9/2

c) x+6=4x-3-(x-2)

x+6=4x-3-x+2

x+6=3x-1

x-3x=-1-6

-2x=-7

x=7/2

f) 4x + 5 = 6x-2-(x-3)​

4x+5=6x-2-x+3

4x+5=5x+1

4x-5x=1-5

-x=-4

x=4
