Part 1:
6(x-5) = 5(x+5) (x = 55)
4y + 2 (-3 + 2y) = 1-y (x = 7/9)
Part 2:
4(a-6) = 8a - (4a-24) (No Solution)
4(2x-8) = 8(x-8) (No Solution)
2(3x-3) = -6x-6 (Identity (x = 0))

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
There were 6 benches in park 1 and 18 benches in park 2.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the no of benches in Park 1 and y in park 2.
Given that there are 12 more benches in park 2 than 1
Writing this in equation form, we have y = x+12 ... i
Next is if 2 benches were transferred from park 2 to park 1, then we have
x+2 in park 1 and y-2 in park 2.
Given that y-2 = twice that of x+2
Or y-2 = 2x+4 ... ii
Rewrite by adding 2 to both sides of equation ii.
y = 2x+6 ... iii
i-iii gives 0 = -x+6
Or x =6
Substitute in i, to have y = 6+12 = 18
Verify:
Original benches 6 and 18.
18 = 6+12 hence I condition is satisfied
18-2 = 2(6+2)
II is also satisfied.
