Answer:

w=6, x=7, t=7, n=90, w=15/2

Explanation:

a) 5w = 30

30/5 = 6

w=6

b) 3x-5=16

Add 5 to each side.

3x+5=16+5

3x=21

21/3=7

x=7

c) 10-t=17

10-t=17

17-10-7

-t=-7

Negative and a negative is a positive.

t=7

d) n/5 = 18

n=18 * 5

n=90

e.) 4w-12=2w+3

4w=2w+3+12

4w=2w+15

4w−2w=15

2w=15

w= 15/2
