Answer:

1. 2

2. 3

3. 6

4. 3

5. 6

6. 3

7. -6

8. -3

9. 3

10. -5

11. 12

12. -18

13. -1

I'm sorry if any of these are wrong I didn't get to check them over.

Explanation:

I will be substituting "a number" with the variable x.

1. Four more than twice a number is 8.

2x+4 = 8

2x = 4

x = 2

2. Three more than four times a number is 15.

4x+3 = 15

4x = 12

x = 3

3. Five less than twice a number is 7.

2x-5 = 7

2x = 12

x = 6

4. One less than four times a number is 11.

4x-1 = 11

4x = 12

x = 3

5. Seven more than the quotient of a number and 2 is 10.

(x/2)+7 = 10

(x/2) = 3

x = 6

6. Six less than six times a number is 12.

6x-6 = 12

6x = 18

x = 3

7. Five less than the quotient of a number and 3 is -7.

(x/3)-5 = -7

x/3 = -2

x = -6

8. Seven more than twice a number is 1.

2x+7 = 1

2x = -6

x = -3

9. The difference between 5 times a number and 3 is 12.

5x-3 = 12

5x = 15

x = 3

10. Nine more than 3 times a number is -6.

3x+9 = -6

3x = -15

x = -5

11. Nine more than the quotient of a number and 4 is 12.

(x/4)+9 = 12

x/4 = 3

x = 12

12. Four less than the quotient of a number and 3 is -10.

(x/3)-4 = -10

x/3 = -6

x = -18

13. Nine less than six times a number is -15.

6x-9 = -15

6x = -6

x = -1
