Math 11C (mod2wk1)

Equations

Solve the following equations and check your answer.

1. 4 – x = - 20. Check: 4 – x = - 20

-x = -20 -4. 4 - 24 = - 20

-x = -24. -20 = -20

x = 24

2. 2x=4
3 5

(2x)(5)=(3)(4).
10x = 12
x = 6/5
Check:
2(6/5)/3=4/5
12/5/3= 4/5
4/5=4/5
3. 2x+ 5 = 22
5
2x+25=110
2x=110-25
2x=85
x= 85/2 or
x=42.5
4. 4x + 2= x – 2
3
4x+2= 3x-6
4x-3x+2=-6
4x-3x=-6-2
x = -6-2
x = -8
Check
4(-8)+2/3=-8-2
-32+2/3 = -10
-30/3 = -10
-10=-10
5. 2x= 5x + 2
5 6
12x = 5(5x+2)
12x. = 25x+10
12x - 25x= 10
-13x =10
x = -10/13
Check:
2(-10/13)/5 = 5(-
10/13)+2/6
-20/13/5= -50/13+2/6
-20/13/5 = -24/13/6
-4/13= -24/13/6
-4/13=-4/13

6. 6x +3 = 5x +2
4
6x-5x+3/4 = 2
6x -5x = 2-3/4
x = 2-3/4
x = 5/4
Check:
6(5/4)+3 = 5(5/4)+2
4
3(5/2)+3 = 5(5/4)+2
4
15/2 + 3/4 = 25/4 + 2
15/2 + 3/4 = 33/4
33/4 = 33/4
7. 3x – 4 = 1 +8x
3x - 8x = 1 + 4
-5x =5
x =-1
Check:
3(-1)-4 = 1 + 8(-1)
-3-4 = 1 +(-8)
-7 = -7
