Question

Directions: Simply each expression or equation.

1) 4x - 10 = 30

2) 17 = T - 9

3) 36 = c + 20

4) Y + 5 = 18

5) 3 = y + 12

6) S + 12 = 8

7) 7 < 3 - 2x

8) 8(x-1) - 1 < 6x – 1

9) 9x + 1 > 2x – 1

Answer 1

1) 4x - 10 = 30, Add 10 to both sides

4x=20, divide 4 on both sides

x=5

2) 17 = T - 9, add 9 to both

26=T

3) 36 = c + 20, subtract 20 to both

16=c

4) Y + 5 = 18, subtract 5 to both

Y=13

5) 3 = y + 12, subtract 12 to both

-9=y

6) S + 12 = 8, subtract 12 to both

S=-4

7) 7 < 3 - 2x, subtract 3 to both

7<-2x, divide -2 on both sides and flip sign

-
`(7)/(2)`>x
