Question

1) Form new equations by carrying out the
action (given in brackets) on both sides
of the equation.
(i) 2x + 3 = 13 (Multiply by 2)
(ii) 3y - 3 = 21 (Add 5)
(iii) 5x + 14 = 24 (Subtract 6)
(iv) 10y + 6 = 36 (Divide by 2)
(v) 5+ 4x = 21 (Multiply by 3)
(vi) 8 + 7x=29 (Subtract 4)​

Answer 1

Answer:

(i) x = 5

(i) x = 5(ii) y = 8

(i) x = 5(ii) y = 8(iii) x = 2

(i) x = 5(ii) y = 8(iii) x = 2(iv) y = 3

(i) x = 5(ii) y = 8(iii) x = 2(iv) y = 3(v) x = 4

(i) x = 5(ii) y = 8(iii) x = 2(iv) y = 3(v) x = 4(vi) x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

(i) 2x + 3 = 13

2x = 13 – 3

2x = 10

x = 10/2

x = 5

(ii) 3y – 3 = 21

3y = 21 + 3

3y = 24

y = 24/3

y = 8

(iii) 5x + 14 = 24

5x = 24 – 14

5x = 10

x = 10/5

x = 2

(iv) 10y + 6 = 36

10y = 36 – 6

10y = 30

y = 30/10

y = 3

(v) 5 + 4x = 21

4x = 21 – 5

4x = 16

x = 16/4

x = 4

(vi) 8 + 7x = 29

7x = 29 – 8

7x = 21

x = 21/7

x = 3

I hope that it would have helped you, Thanks.
