Ch2L4-Equation with Variables on Each Side Practice

Question 1

Equation with variables on both side

8+3d = 5d

Answer 1

Equations like: 8+3d = 5d have a variable on both sides.

First: subtraction one of the variable term on both side:

8+3d - 3d = 5d - 3d –> 8=2d

Then solve this one step equation: 8 = 2d by:

8/2 = 2d/2 –> 4=d, d=4

Question 2

6n -1 = 4n -5

Question 3

8a = 5a + 21

Question 4

3x - 7 = 8x +23

Question 5

2/3x -1 = 9 - 1/6x

Question 6

11x=24+8x
