Answer:
5x - 2 = 18
5x =18+2
5x =20
X=4
1/4y +1/2=5
1/4y =5-1/2
1/4y = 10/2- 1/2
1/4y = 9/2
Y = 9/2 x 4
y = 18
3/5 x - 6 =3
3/5 x =3+6
3/5x =9
x =9 x 5/3
x = 15
Answer:
1. 5x - 2 = 18
ans. or, 5x = 18 + 2
or, 5x = 20
or, x = 20/5
or, x = 4 (answer)
2. 1/4y + 1/2 = 4
ans. or, 1/4y = 4 - 1/2
or, 1/4y = 3 1/2 or 7/2
or, 1/4 x 4y = 7/2 x 4
or, 1y = 28/2
or, x = 14 (answer)
3. 3/5x - 6 = 3
ans. or, 3/5x = 3 + 6
or, 3/5x = 9
or, 3/5 x 5x = 9 x 5
or, 3x = 45
or, x = 45/3
or, x = 15 (answer)
4. 3x + 1/5 = 2 - x
ans. or, 3x + x = 2 - 1/5
or, 4x = 9/5
or, x = 9/5/4
or, x = 9/5 x 1/4
or, x = 9/20 (answer)
5. 8x + 5 = 6x - 5
ans. or, 8x - 6x = -5 - 5
or, 2x = -10
or, x = -10/2
or, x = -5 (answer)
6. 9z - 13 = 11z + 27
ans. or, 9z - 11z = 27 + 13
or, -2x = 40
or, x = 40/-2
or, x = -20 (answer)
