Solve the following equations and check your results.
Q.1 3x = 2x + 18
Sol. Given, 3x = 2x + 18
Transposing 2x from RHS to LHS, we get,
3x – 2x = 18
x = 18
Verification:
LHS = 3x = 3 x 18 = 54
RHS = 2x + 18 = 2 x 18 + 18 = 36 + 18 = 54
Here, LHS = RHS
Thus, the result obtained is correct.
Q.2 5t – 3 = 3t – 5
Sol. Given, 5t – 3 = 3t – 5
Transposing 3t from RHS to LHS and – 3 from LHS to RHS, we get,
5t – 3t = -5 – (- 3)
2t = - 2
Dividing both the sides by 2, we get,
t = -1
Verification:
LHS = 5t - 3 = 5 x (-1) – 3 = - 8
RHS = 3t – 5 = 3 x (-1) – 5 = -3 - 18 = -8
Here, LHS = RHS
Thus, the result obtained is correct.
Q.3 5x + 9 = 5 + 3x
Sol. Given, 5x + 9 = 5 + 3x
Transposing 3x from RHS to LHS and 9 from LHS to RHS
5x – 3x = 5 – 9
2x = -4
Dividing both the sides by 2, we get,
x = -2
Verification:
LHS = 5x + 9 = 5 x (-2) + 9 = - 1
RHS = 5 + 3x = 5 + 3 x (-2) = 5 - 6 = -1
Here, LHS = RHS
Thus, the result obtained is correct.
Q.4 4z + 3 = 6 + 2z
Sol. Given, 4z + 3 = 6 + 2z
Transposing 2z from RHS to LHS and 3 from LHS to RHS, we get,
4z – 2z = 6 – 3
2z = 3
Dividing by 2 on both the sides, we get,
Verification:
LHS = 4z + 3 = 4 x + 3 = 6 + 3 = 9
RHS = 6 + 2z = 6 + 2 x = 6 + 3 = 9
Here, LHS = RHS
Thus, the result obtained is correct.
Q.5 2x – 1 = 14 – x
Sol. Given, 2x – 1 = 14 – x
Transposing x from RHs to LHS and 1 from LHS to RHS, we get,
2x + x = 14 + 1
3x = 15
Dividing by 3 on both the sides, we get,
x = 5
Verification:
LHS = 2x - 1 = 2 x (5) - 1 = 10 - 1= 9
RHS = 14 - x = 14 - 5 = 9
Here, LHS = RHS
Thus, the result obtained is correct.
Q.6 8x + 4 = 3 (x – 1) + 7
Sol. Given, 8x + 4 = 3 (x – 1) + 7
8x + 4 = 3x – 3 + 7
Transposing 3x from RHS to LHS and 4 from LHS to RHS, we get,
8x – 3x = - 3 + 7 – 4
5x = - 7 + 7
x = 0
Verification:
LHS = 8x + 4 = 8 x (0) + 4 = 4
RHS = 3(x – 1) + 7 = 3(0 – 1) + 7 = - 3 + 7 = 4
Here, LHS = RHS
Thus, the result obtained is correct.
Q.7
Sol. Given,
Multiplying by 5 on both the sides, we get,
5x = 4(x + 10)
5x = 4x + 40
Transposing 4x from RHS to LHS, we get,
5x – 4x = 40
x = 40
Verification:
LHS = x = 40
RHS ==
=
= 40
Here, LHS = RHS
Thus, the result obtained is correct.
Q.8
Sol. Given,
Transposing from RHS to LHS and 1 from LHS to RHS, we get,
Multiplying by 5 on both the sides, we get,
x = 10
Verification:
LHS = =
=
RHS = =
=
=
=
Here, LHS = RHS
Thus, the result obtained is correct.
Q.9
Sol. Given,
Dividing by 3 on both the sides, we get,
Verification:
LHS = =
=
=
RHS = =
=
Here, LHS = RHS
Thus, the result obtained is correct.
Q.10
Sol. Given,
Transposing 5m from RHS to LHS, we get,
Dividing by -2 on both the sides, we get,
Verification:
LHS =
RHS =
Here, LHS = RHS
Thus, the result obtained is correct.
