Question 1
Solve the following linear equations
  1. $11 x + 10 = 10 x + 6$
  2. $12 x + 5 = 5 x + 3$
  3. $16 x + 9 = 9 x + 5$
  4. $11 x + 2 = 2 x + 10$
  5. $18 x + 4 = 4 x + 8$
  6. $20 x + 10 = 10 x + 4$
  7. $9 x + 6 = 6 x + 3$
  8. $9 x + 3 = 3 x + 10$

Answer

These are pretty simple ,which can be obtained using transposing the values from left to right

  6. $x = - \frac{3}{5}$
  7. $x = -1$
  8. $x = \frac{7}{6}$


Question 2
Solve:
  1. $\frac{3 x + 8}{9 x + 4} = \frac{3}{8}$
  2. $\frac{6 x + 3}{7 x + 4} = 2$
  3. $\frac{7 x + 3}{9 x + 5} = \frac{7}{3}$
  4. $\frac{5 x + 4}{10 x + 10} = \frac{5}{4}$
  5. $\frac{6 x + 7}{x + 6} = \frac{6}{7}$
  6. $\frac{x + 4}{2 x + 4} = \frac{1}{4}$

Answer

First question is explained in below picture

. We can solve the other questions similarly

  1. $x = \frac{52}{3}$
  2. $x = - \frac{5}{8}$
  3. $x = - \frac{13}{21}$
  4. $x = - \frac{17}{15}$
  5. $x = - \frac{13}{36}$
  6. $x = -6$




Question 3
Solve
  1. $\frac{x}{8} + 6 = \frac{x}{6} + 2$
  2. $\frac{x}{10} + 4 = \frac{x}{9} + 8$
  3. $\frac{x}{10} + 6 = \frac{x}{3} + 8$
  4. $\frac{x}{3} + 10 = \frac{x}{10} + 7$
  5. $x + 5 = \frac{x}{8} + 9$
  6. $\frac{x}{4} + 1 = \frac{x}{9} + 2$
  7. $\frac{x}{8} + 9 = \frac{x}{10} + 6$
  8. $\frac{x}{10} + 7 = \frac{x}{2} + 9$

Answer

  1. $x = 96$
  2. $x = -360$
  3. $x = - \frac{60}{7}$
  4. $x = - \frac{90}{7}$
  5. $x = \frac{32}{7}$
  6. $x = \frac{36}{5}$
  7. $x = -120$
  8. $x = -5$


Question 4
Solve each of the following equations
(a) $\frac {x+1}{4} = \frac {x-2}{2}$
(b) $1 -(p - 2) - [(p - 3) - (p - 1)] = 0$
(c) $7x - 7 = 21 -5x$
(d) $-7x = 84 +x$
(e)$0.25 (4m - 5) = 0.75m + 8$
(f) $3(x - 4) = 21$
(g)$\frac {3x}{2} - \frac {x}{3} = 8$
(h) $ \frac {y}{2} -\frac {1}{4}(y- \frac {1}{3}) = \frac {1}{6} (y+1) + \frac {1}{12}$
(i) 3(2z - 3) = 12(2z + 4)

Answer

a. x=5
b. $1 -(p - 2) - [(p - 3) - (p - 1)] = 0$
$1 - p +2 - [p-3 -p+1]=0$
$1 -p +2 +2=0$
$p=5$

c. x= 7/3
d. x= -21/2
e. $0.25 (4m - 5) = 0.75m + 8$
$m -1.25=.75m + 8$
$ m - .75 m = 8 + 1.25$
$.25 m= 9.25$
$m= 37$

f. x=11
g. $\frac {3x}{2} - \frac {x}{3} = 8$
$6(\frac {3x}{2} - \frac {x}{3} ) = 6 \times 8$
$9x -2x = 48$
$7x=48$
x= 48/7
h. $ \frac {y}{2} -\frac {1}{4}(y- \frac {1}{3}) = \frac {1}{6} (y+1) + \frac {1}{12}$
Multiply by 12 on both sides
$ 6y - 3(y- \frac {1}{3}) = 2(y+1) + 1$
$6y -3y+ 1= 2y+2 +1$
$y=2$
i. $3(2z - 3) = 12(2z + 4)$
$6z -9 =24z +48$
$18z = -9-48$
$18z=-57$
$z= - \frac {57}{18}$


Question 5
The sum of three consecutive odd natural numbers is 69. Find the prime number out of these numbers

Answer

Let the numbers be x , x+2 ,x+4
Then
$x+ x+2 +x +4=69$
$3x +6=69$
$x=21$
So Numbers are 21,23,25. The prime number out of these is 23



Question 6
A positive number is 5 times another number. If 21 is added to both the numbers, then one of the new numbers become twice of another new numbers. Find the original numbers.

Answer

Let x be another number, then positive number will be 5x
Now
$5x + 21 = 2(x + 21)$
$3x= 63$
$x= 21$
So numbers are 105 , 21


Question 7
The shifting of a number from one side of an equation to other is called
(a) Transposition
(b) Distributivity
(c) Commutativity
(d) Associativity

Answer

(a)
