<h2>Solving Equations</h2>
To solve linear equations, we must perform inverse operations on both sides of the equal sign to <em>cancel values out</em>.
- If something is being added to x, subtract it from both sides.
- If something is being subtracted from x, add it on both sides.
- Same with multiplication and division. If x is being divided, multiply. If x is being multiplied, divide.
We perform inverse operations to<em> combine like terms</em>. This means to get x to one side and everything else on the other.
<h2>Solving the Questions</h2><h3>Question 1</h3>

Because 7 is being added to x, subtract it from both sides:

Because x is being multiplied by 5, divide both sides by 5:

Therefore.
.
<h3>Question 2</h3>

Here, we can group all the x values on the left side of the equation. Subtract 5x from both sides:

To isolate x, subtract 4 from both sides:

Divide both sides by 2:

Therefore,
.
Answer:
6
Step-by-step explanation:
From the Trapezoid attached :
EF = GT
FG = LA
LE = AT = 10
LA = 24 ; FG = 24
FG + EF + GT = 40
Let : EF and GT = x
FG + 2x = 40
24 + 2x = 40
2x = 40 - 24
2x = 16
x = 16 ÷ 2 = 8
Hence, EF = GT = 8
Using Pythagoras :
Opposite² = hypotenus² - Adjacent²
LF² = LE² - FE²
LF² = 10² - 8²
LF² = 100 - 64
LF² = 36
LF = √36
LF = 6
Answer:
B because 2x > 8 is 8 ÷ 2
