  2. 2y + 5 = 11
  3. 3z – 7 = 26
  4. (x + 9) / 3 = 7
  5. 10a + 8 = 58

Q.3 Solve the equations and check your solutions:

  1. 2(x – 3) = 14
  2. 3(2y + 5) = 27
  3. 4(a + 2) = 40
  4. 5(3b – 2) = 25
  5. 6(c – 4) = 18

Answers

  1. x = 10 (Check: 2(10 – 3) = 2(7) = 14)
  2. y = 4 (Check: 3(2*4 + 5) = 3(13) = 39)
  3. a = 8 (Check: 4(8 + 2) = 4(10) = 40)
  4. b = 5 (Check: 5(3*5 – 2) = 5(15 – 2) = 5(13) = 65)
  5. c = 10 (Check: 6(10 – 4) = 6(6) = 36)

Q.4 Solve the following equations.

  1. 2x + 5 = 13
    Solution: Subtract 5 from both sides: 2x = 8. Divide both sides by 2: x = 4.
  2. 3y – 7 = 16
    Solution: Add 7 to both sides: 3y = 23. Divide both sides by 3: y = 7.67 (rounded to two decimal places).
  3. 4z + 9 = 25
    Solution: Subtract 9 from both sides: 4z = 16. Divide both sides by 4: z = 4.
  4. 5a – 3 = 22
    Solution: Add 3 to both sides: 5a = 25. Divide both sides by 5: a = 5.
  5. 6b + 2 = 32
    Solution: Subtract 2 from both sides: 6b = 30. Divide both sides by 6: b = 5.

Q.5 Write the equation for the following word problems and solve.

  1. The sum of a number and 8 is 20. Find the number.
    Equation: x + 8 = 20
    Solution: Subtract 8 from both sides: x = 12.
  2. Three times a number decreased by 5 is equal to 22. Find the number.
    Equation: 3x – 5 = 22
    Solution: Add 5 to both sides: 3x = 27. Divide both sides by 3: x = 9.
  3. The product of a number and 7 is 63. Find the number.
    Equation: 7x = 63
    Solution: Divide both sides by 7: x = 9.
  4. Twice a number increased by 4 is equal to 18. Find the number.
    Equation: 2x + 4 = 18
    Solution: Subtract 4 from both sides: 2x = 14. Divide both sides by 2: x = 7.
  5. Five less than a number multiplied by 6 is equal to 42. Find the number.
    Equation: 6x – 5 = 42
    Solution: Add 5 to both sides: 6x = 47. Divide both sides by 6: x = 7.83 (rounded to two decimal places).
