Solution (1) :

Solution (a) :

step 1. Multiply the variable x with 13 .

step 2. Add 2 to it .

Solution (b) :

Step 1 : Subtract 2 from both sides : 13x + 2 - 2 = 41 - 2 = 39

Step 2 : Divide both the sides by 13 : 13x ÷ 13 = 39 ÷ 13 = 3

x = 3

Solution (2) :

Solution (a) :

Step 1. Subtract 3 from the variable .

Step 2. Divide the result by 5 .

Solution (b) :


Step \: 1. \: add\: 3 \: to \: both \: the \: sides : (x - 3)/(5) + 3 = - 1 + 3</p><p>

Step 2 : Multiply both the sides by 5 : 5 × 1/5x = 5 × -2/5

x = -2

1a. Multiply a variable by 13, add 2.

1b. Subtract two from both sides, divide both sides by 13. X=3

2a. Subtract 3 from a variable; divide by 5

2a. Multiply both sides by 5,add 3 to each side. x=-2
