3 x = 21

Evaluate for the missing variable. 

3 x = 21 

Opposite of multiply 3 is divide 3. 

21 divide 3 = 7 

Answer: 7

2 x + 1 = 11

Solve for  x.  

2 x + 1 = 11 

       - 1     - 1

2 x = 10        Divide both sides by 2 

x = 5

Can you combine: 

4 T + 8

4 T + 8 

No. They are not the same. 

4T is a cofficient with a variable. 

+8 is a constant.

3 + Y = 10

Evaluate the equation for the missing variable. 


3 + Y = 10

Opposite of add 3 is subtract 3. 

10 - 3 = 7 

Answer: 7

200

3x - 2 = 10 

Solve for X. 

3 x -2 = 10 

     +2     +2      Add 2 to both sides 

3 x = 12        Divide both sides by 3 

x = 4

8R -4  -3R -1R  


8R -4  -3R -1R   (You can combine 8R- 3 R- 1R) 

4R  is left. You can't do anything with -4

Answer: 4R - 4

R / 5 = 7

Evaluate the equation for the missing variable. 


R / 5 = 7 

the opposite of divide 5 is multiply 5. 

7 x 5 = 35 

Answer: R = 35

4 x +7 = 15 

Solve for x. 

4 x +7 = 15

     -7     -7      Subtract 7 from both sides 

4 x = 8        Divide both sides by 4 

x = 2

6P + 2 P -3

6P + 2 P -3     (You can combine 6P+ 2P) 

 8 P- 3 

Answer: 8P -3

W  = 9 

4

Evaluate the equation to solve for the missing variable. 

W  = 9 

4

the opposite of divide 4 is multiply 4. 

4 x 9 = 36 

Answer: W = 36

400

9 x -10 = 26

Solve for x. 

9 x -10 = 26

      + 10    + 10 Add 10 to both sides 

  9 x = 36    Divide both sides by 9 

x = 4

25 W + 6 - 3W -2

25 W + 6 - 3W -2  (You can combine: 25W and -3W)

                             -> 22 W 

                           (You can combine: 6 - 2) 

                           -> 4 

Answer: 22W - 4

500

W - 46 = 110  

Evaluate the equation to solve for the missing variable. 

W - 46 = 110  

The opposite of -46 is to add 46. 

110 + 46 = 156 

Answer: 156

500

5 x +5 = 40 

Solve for x. 

5 x +5 = 40

      - 5    - 5   Subtract 5 from both sides. 

5 x = 35     Divide both sides by 5 

x = 7

-5K - 4 K -36 +4 +13K

-5K - 4K -36 +4 +13K 

You can combine: -5K- 4K +13K = 4K 

You can combine:-36 + 4 = -32

Final answer: 4K-32
