Math Problem Statement

Solve the set of algebraic equations (10 in total).

Solution

Let's go through the set of equations one by one and solve them:

1. x+5=7x + 5 = 7

To solve for xx: x=75=2x = 7 - 5 = 2

2. 2+x=72 + x = 7

To solve for xx: x=72=5x = 7 - 2 = 5

3. x+8=6x + 8 = 6

To solve for xx: x=68=2x = 6 - 8 = -2

4. x3=12x - 3 = 12

To solve for xx: x=12+3=15x = 12 + 3 = 15

5. x+15=20x + 15 = 20

To solve for xx: x=2015=5x = 20 - 15 = 5

6. x3=4\frac{x}{3} = 4

To solve for xx: x=4×3=12x = 4 \times 3 = 12

7. 3x12=03x - 12 = 0

To solve for xx: 3x=12x=123=43x = 12 \quad \Rightarrow \quad x = \frac{12}{3} = 4

8. 2x3=5+x2x - 3 = 5 + x

To solve for xx: 2xx=5+3x=82x - x = 5 + 3 \quad \Rightarrow \quad x = 8

9. 8x3=4+7x8x - 3 = 4 + 7x

To solve for xx: 8x7x=4+3x=78x - 7x = 4 + 3 \quad \Rightarrow \quad x = 7

10. x+33+x3x=2\frac{x + 3}{3} + \frac{x}{3} - x = 2

Combine the terms on the left: (x+3)+x3x=22x+33x=2\frac{(x + 3) + x}{3} - x = 2 \quad \Rightarrow \quad \frac{2x + 3}{3} - x = 2 Multiply everything by 3 to eliminate the denominator: 2x+33x=6x+3=6x=63=32x + 3 - 3x = 6 \quad \Rightarrow \quad -x + 3 = 6 \quad \Rightarrow \quad -x = 6 - 3 = 3 So: x=3x = -3


All equations are now solved. Do you want any further details or explanations on a specific step?

Here are 5 related questions to test your understanding:

  1. How would you solve an equation with fractions on both sides?
  2. How do you check if a solution to an equation is correct?
  3. Can an equation have more than one solution?
  4. What are the steps to solve a quadratic equation?
  5. How do you solve equations with variables on both sides?

Tip: Always check your solution by substituting it back into the original equation to verify it works.
