Answer key and explanations

  1. B. \(x=8\)

    Subtract \(7\) from both sides: \(x=15-7=8\).

  2. A. \(x=7\)

    Subtract \(9\) from both sides: \(x=16-9=7\).

  3. C. \(x=17\)

    Add \(5\) to both sides: \(x=12+5=17\).

  4. C. \(x=14\)

    Add \(8\) to both sides: \(x=6+8=14\).

  5. A. \(x=6\)

    Divide both sides by \(3\): \(x=18\div 3=6\).

  6. A. \(x=8\)

    Divide both sides by \(5\): \(x=40\div 5=8\).

  7. C. \(x=24\)

    Multiply both sides by \(4\): \(x=6\times 4=24\).

  8. A. \(x=13-6\)

    Subtract \(6\) from both sides to isolate \(x\). So \(x=13-6\).
