Some problems to work with are
[tex]2x+4=10[/tex][tex]25+x=10[/tex][tex]3x+9=18[/tex][tex]18y+3=147[/tex]Explanation:
2x + 4 = 10
Step 1: Subtract 4 from both sides to get
[tex]2x=6[/tex]Step 2: Divide both sides by 2 to get:
[tex]x=3[/tex]25 + x = 10
Step 1: Subtract 25 from both sides to get
[tex]\begin{gathered} 25+x-25=10-25 \\ \therefore x=-15. \end{gathered}[/tex]3x + 9 = 18
Step 1: Subtract 9 from both sides to get
[tex]3x=9[/tex]Step 2: Divide both sides by 3 to get
[tex]x=3.[/tex]
