- Answer - Question 5(a):
- First, we start with the equation \(\frac{3x + 5}{2}=7\).
- Multiply both - sides of the equation by 2 to get rid of the denominator: \(3x+5 = 7\times2\).
- \(3x + 5=14\).
- Then subtract 5 from both sides: \(3x=14 - 5\).
- \(3x = 9\).
- Finally, divide both sides by 3: \(x=\frac{9}{3}=3\).
- Answer - Question 5(b):
- Given \(\frac{5x - 12}{3}=11\).
- Multiply both sides by 3: \(5x-12 = 11\times3\).
- \(5x-12 = 33\).
- Add 12 to both sides: \(5x=33 + 12\).
- \(5x = 45\).
- Divide both sides by 5: \(x=\frac{45}{5}=9\).
- Answer - Question 5(c):
- For \(\frac{4x + 2}{6}=5\).
- Multiply both sides by 6: \(4x+2 = 5\times6\).
- \(4x+2 = 30\).
- Subtract 2 from both sides: \(4x=30 - 2\).
- \(4x = 28\).
- Divide both sides by 4: \(x=\frac{28}{4}=7\).
- Answer - Question 5(d):
- Given \(\frac{10x + 3}{4}=4\).
- Multiply both sides by 4: \(10x+3 = 4\times4\).
- \(10x+3 = 16\).
- Subtract 3 from both sides: \(10x=16 - 3\).
- \(10x = 13\).
- Divide both sides by 10: \(x=\frac{13}{10}=1.3\).
- Answer - Question 5(e):
- For \(\frac{5x - 8}{2}=10\).
- Multiply both sides by 2: \(5x-8 = 10\times2\).
- \(5x-8 = 20\).
- Add 8 to both sides: \(5x=20 + 8\).
- \(5x = 28\).
- Divide both sides by 5: \(x=\frac{28}{5}=5.6\).
- Answer - Question 5(f):
- Given \(\frac{8x + 4}{5}=12.8\).
- Multiply both sides by 5: \(8x+4 = 12.8\times5\).
- \(8x+4 = 64\).
- Subtract 4 from both sides: \(8x=64 - 4\).
- \(8x = 60\).
- Divide both sides by 8: \(x=\frac{60}{8}=7.5\).
- Answer - Question 5(g):
- For \(\frac{2x + 13}{3}=1\).
- Multiply both sides by 3: \(2x+13 = 1\times3\).
- \(2x+13 = 3\).
- Subtract 13 from both sides: \(2x=3 - 13\).
- \(2x=-10\).
- Divide both sides by 2: \(x=\frac{-10}{2}=-5\).
- Answer - Question 5(h):
- Given \(\frac{3x - 4}{7}=-4\).
- Multiply both sides by 7: \(3x-4=-4\times7\).
- \(3x-4=-28\).
- Add 4 to both sides: \(3x=-28 + 4\).
- \(3x=-24\).
- Divide both sides by 3: \(x=\frac{-24}{3}=-8\).
- Answer - Question 5(i):
- For \(\frac{7x - 12}{3}=-25\).
- Multiply both sides by 3: \(7x-12=-25\times3\).
- \(7x-12=-75\).
- Add 12 to both sides: \(7x=-75 + 12\).
- \(7x=-63\).
- Divide both sides by 7: \(x=\frac{-63}{7}=-9\).
- Answer - Question 5(j):
- Given \(\frac{29 - 2x}{3}=5\).
- Multiply both sides by 3: \(29-2x = 5\times3\).
- \(29-2x = 15\).
- Subtract 29 from both sides: \(-2x=15 - 29\).
- \(-2x=-14\).
- Divide both sides by - 2: \(x=\frac{-14}{-2}=7\).
- Answer - Question 5(k):
- For \(\frac{100 - 5x}{3}=30\).
- Multiply both sides by 3: \(100-5x = 30\times3\).
- \(100-5x = 90\).
- Subtract 100 from both sides: \(-5x=90 - 100\).
- \(-5x=-10\).
- Divide both sides by - 5: \(x=\frac{-10}{-5}=2\).
- Answer - Question 5(l):
- Given \(\frac{24 - 3x}{12}=5\).
- Multiply both sides by 12: \(24-3x = 5\times12\).
- \(24-3x = 60\).
- Subtract 24 from both sides: \(-3x=60 - 24\).
- \(-3x = 36\).
- Divide both sides by - 3: \(x=\frac{36}{-3}=-12\).
Since there are too many sub - questions in this problem to list all solutions for all questions, the general method for solving linear equations of the form \(\frac{ax + b}{c}=d\) (as in Question 5) is:
Step1: Eliminate denominator
Multiply both sides by the denominator value. For \(\frac{ax + b}{c}=d\), we get \(ax + b=cd\).
Step2: Isolate the term with \(x\)
Use addition or subtraction to move the constant term to the other side. For \(ax + b=cd\), we get \(ax=cd - b\).
Step3: Solve for \(x\)
Divide both sides by the coefficient of \(x\). So \(x=\frac{cd - b}{a}\).
