Answer: 1. X = 24

2. X = 20

Explanation:

3

x

−2=6

Multiply both sides of the equation by 3.

x−6=18

Add 6 to both sides.

x=18+6

Add 18 and 6 to get 24.

x=24

_______________________________________________________

5

x

+1=5

Multiply both sides of the equation by 5.

x+5=25

Subtract 5 from both sides.

x=25−5

Subtract 5 from 25 to get 20.

x=20
