f Solve these equations:
a) 4x + 1 = 2x + 7 b) 3x + 5 = x + 15 c) 6x + 7 = 5x + 13

d) 10x 6 = 7x + 9 e) 5x 1 = 2x + 11 f) 6x 1 = x + 19

g) 12x 4 = 8x + 24 h) 10x 1 = 8x + 6 i) 4x + 4 = 2x + 12

j) 6x + 3 = 2x + 10 k) 9x 2 = 4x + 9 l) 7x 7 = - x + 1

5 These equations look a bit different. Solve them in the same

way

a) 3x = 2x + 6 b) 5x = x + 20 c) 7x = 4x + 30

d) 9x = 8x + 6 e) 3x = x + 13 f) 5x 12 = 3x

g) 4x 15 = x h) 3x + 6 = x l) 10x 21 = 7x

6 I bought 3 bags of marbles. My friend bought 1 bag and he also had 24

loose marbles.

We discovered that we had exactly the same number of marbles.

a) Make up an equation to show this information.

(let x be the number of marbles in 1 bag)

b) Solve the equation to determine how many marbles there are in each

bag.
