set up an equation and solve them to find the unknown numbers in the following cases
Answers
Answer:
ADD 4 TO EIGHT TIMES A NUMBER, YOU GET 60
Let the number be X
8x + 4 = 60
so, 8x = 60 - 4
8x = 56
x = 56/8
x = 7
ONE FIFTH OF A NUMBER MINUS 4 GIVES 3
Let the number be X
So, 1/5 × x - 4 = 3
x/5 = 3 + 4
x/5 = 7
x = 7×5
x = 35
3rd QUESTION
Let the number be X
3/4 × X + 3 = 21
3x/4 + 3 = 21
( 3x + 12) / 4 = 21
3x + 12 = 21 × 4
3x + 12 = 84
3x = 84 - 12
3x = 72
x = 24
ANSWER NO. G
Let the number be X
7 - 5x/2 = 23
( 14 - 5x ) / 2 = 23
14 - 5x = 23×2
14 - 5x = 46
- 5x = 46 - 14
- 5x = 32
x = 32/-5
ANSWER NO. F
Let the number be X
( x + 19 ) / 5 = 8
x + 19 = 8 × 5
x + 19 = 40
x = 40 - 19
x = 21
