Solve for x:

2x + 3 = 15

(When you see it written 2x that means the same thing as 2*x)
x = 6

WORK
2x + 3 = 15
2x + 3 - 3 = 15 - 3
2x = 12
(2x)/2 = 12/2
x = 6

Solve for m:

5 = 5m - 23 + 2m
m =4

WORK
5 = 5m - 23 + 2m
5 = 5m + 2m - 23
5 = 7m - 23
5 + 23 = 7m - 23 + 23
28 = 7m
28/7 = 7m/7
4 = m

Solve for b:

3b - 4 = b + 2
b = 3

WORK
3b - 4 = b + 2
3b - 4 + 4 = b + 2 + 4
3b = b + 6
3b - b = b - b + 6
2b = 6

Solve:


The length of a rectangle is 5 cm. more than the width.  Find the length and width if the perimeter of the rectangle is 34 cm.

Width=6

Length=11

WORK

x+5+x+x+5+x=34

4x+10=34

4x=24

x=6 width

x+5= length

Solve for a:

(1/2)a + 5 = 18
a = 26

WORK
(1/2)a + 5 = 18
(1/2)a + 5 - 5 = 18 - 5
(1/2)a = 13
2*(1/2)a = 13*2
a = 26

Solve for x:


(x + 4) + 2x = 67

x = 21


WORK

(x + 4) + 2x = 67

x + 2x + 4 = 67 [addition is commutative]

3x + 4 = 67

3x + 4 - 4= 67 - 4

3x = 63

3x/3 = 63/3

x = 21

Solve for x:

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

WORK
5x + 2 = 2x + 14
5x + 2 - 2 2x + 14- 2
5x = 2x + 12
5x - 2x = 2x - 2x + 12
3x = 12
3x/3 = 12/3
x = 4

Solve:


The length of a rectangle is 3 cm. more than twice  the width.  Find the length if the perimeter of the rectangle is 18 cm.

2x+3+x+2x+3+x=18

6x+6=18

6x=12

x=2 width

2(2)+3= 7 length

Solve for x:

5x = 20

(When you see it written 5x that means the same thing as 5*x)
x = 4

WORK
5x = 20
5x/5 = 20/5
x = 4

Solve for t:

-t + 8 = 3
t = 5

WORK
-t + 8 = 3
-t + 8 - 8= 3 - 8
-t = -5 [which is the same thing as -1t = -5]
-1t/-1=-5/-1
t = 5

Solve for x:


-8(2x - 1) = 36

x = -7/4


WORK

-8(2x - 1) = 36

-16x + 8 = 36 [Distributive Property]

-16x + 8 - 8 = 36 - 8

-16x = 28

-16x/(-16) = 28/(-16)

x = -7/4

Solve for m:

(4/5)*m = 28
m = 35

WORK
(4/5)*m = 28

Solve for x:


3.5 - 0.02x = 1.24

x = 113


WORK

3.5 - 0.02x = 1.24

100*(3.5 - 0.02x) = 1.24*100

350 - 2x = 124 [Distributive Property]

350 - 350 - 2x = 124 - 350

-2x/(-2) = -226/(-2)

x = 113

Solve for x:

2(5x - 1) = 3(x + 11)
x = 5

WORK
2(5x - 1) = 3(x + 11)
10x - 2 = 3x + 33 [Distribute]
10x - 3x - 2 = 3x - 3x + 33
7x - 2 + 2 = 33 + 2
7x/7 = 35/7
x = 5

Solve for x:

9m - 4 = -3m + 5 + 12m
NO SOLUTION
-4 = 5

WORK
9m - 4 = -3m + 5 + 12m
9m - 4 = -3m + 12m + 5
9m -9m - 4 = 9m -9m + 5
-4 = 5 <~~~NO! So, No Solution!
