You can put this solution on YOUR website!
y + 3=8
\n" ); document.write( "3=a + 7
\n" ); document.write( "6=x-4
\n" ); document.write( "7b=35
\n" ); document.write( "25=5y
\n" ); document.write( "10x=110
\n" ); document.write( "I think the first 2 problems you wrote wrong. I hope I wasright in my assumption.
\n" ); document.write( "If so, here is how you solve them;
\n" ); document.write( "In each ofthe problems the object is to get the variable by itself \"x,y, and a\";
\n" ); document.write( "y+3=8
\n" ); document.write( "subtract 3 from both sides;
\n" ); document.write( "1)y+3-3=8-3
\n" ); document.write( "y=5
\n" ); document.write( "2)3=a+7
\n" ); document.write( "subtract 7 from both sides;
\n" ); document.write( "3-7=a+7-7
\n" ); document.write( "-4=a
\n" ); document.write( "3)6=x-4
\n" ); document.write( "add 4 to both sides;
\n" ); document.write( "6+4=x-4+4
\n" ); document.write( "10=x
\n" ); document.write( "4)7b=35
\n" ); document.write( "divide each side by 7;
\n" ); document.write( "\"7b%2F7\"=\"35%2F7\"
\n" ); document.write( "b=5
\n" ); document.write( "5)25=5y
\n" ); document.write( "divide each side by 5;
\n" ); document.write( "\"25%2F5\"=\"5y%2F5\"
\n" ); document.write( "5=y
\n" ); document.write( "6)10x=110
\n" ); document.write( "divide each side by 10;
\n" ); document.write( "\"10x%2F10\"=\"110%2F10\"
\n" ); document.write( "x=11
\n" ); document.write( "Hope you understand. If not let me know
\n" ); document.write( "=)
