1) 2x = 14
Divide each side by x
x = 7
.
2) x - 12 = 7
Add 12 to each side.
x = ??
.
3) 1/2 X = 34
Multiply each side by 2
x = 34 * 2
.
4) X/6 = 2/3
Multiply each side by 6 to find X
X = 2/3 * 6
.
5) 2X - 6 = 5
Add 6 to each side
2X = ???
Divide each side by 2
X = ????
.
6) 5 * x^2 = 45
Divide each side by 5
x^2 = 9
Take the square root of each side
x = ????
