1. In the first problem, we need to subtract 1 from 9 since there is an addition:
9 – 1 = 8
Next, divide 8 by 2, and we get:
8 ÷ 2 = 4
This means that x = 4
Finally, check the answer by:
2(4) + 1 = 9
2. In the second problem, we need to subtract 3 from 19 since there is an addition:
19 – 3 = 16
Next, divide 16 by 4, and we get:
16 ÷ 4 = 4
This means that x = 4
Finally, check the answer by:
4(4) + 3 = 19
3. In the third problem, we need to add 2 with 7 since there is subtraction:
2 + 7 = 9
Next, divide 9 by 3, and we get:
9 ÷ 3 = 3
This means that x = 3
Finally, check the answer by:
3(3) – 2 = 7
