d) 126 + ( 132 - x ) = 300 

2.

a) 120 - ( x + 55 ) = 60 

b) ( 7x - 11)3 = 25 .52 + 200 

c) 2x + 2x+4 = 544 

3. 

a) 10 + 2x = 49 : 47 

b) 70 - 5 ( x - 3 ) = 45 

c) 4 + 95 : x = 143 : 142 - 23

Answer 1

1)

a) 2x + 5 = 3⁴ : 3²

2x + 5 = 3²

2x + 5 = 9

2x = 9 - 5

2x = 4

x = 4 : 2

x = 2

b) (3x - 24).73 = 2.74

(3x - 24).73 = 148

3x - 24 = 148/73

3x = 148/73 + 24

3x = 1900/73

x = 1900/73 : 3

x = 1900/219

c) [3.(42 - x)] + 15 = 23.3

126 - 3x + 15 = 69

141 - 3x = 69

3x = 141 - 69

3x = 72

x = 72 : 3

x = 24

d) 126 + (132 - x) = 300

132 - x = 300 - 126

132 - x = 174

x = 132 - 174

x = -42

Answer 2

2)

a) 120 - (x + 55) = 60

x + 55 = 120 - 60

x + 155 = 60

x = 60 - 55

x = 5

b) (7x - 11).3 = 25.52 + 200

(7x - 11).3 = 1500

7x - 11 = 1500 : 3

7x - 11 = 500

7x = 500 + 11

7x = 511

x = 511 : 7

x = 73

c) 2x + 2x + 4 = 544

4x = 544 - 4

4x = 540

x = 540 : 4

x = 135

Answer 3

3) 

a) 10 + 2x = 49 : 47

10 + 2x = 49/47

2x = 49/47 - 10

2x = -421/47

x = -421/47 : 2

x = -421/94

b) 70 - 5(x - 3) = 45

5(x - 3) = 70 - 45

5(x - 3) = 25

x - 3 = 25 : 5

x - 3 = 5

x = 5 + 3

x = 8

c) 4 + 95 : x = 143 : 142 - 23

4 + 95 : x = -3123/142

95 : x = -3123/142 - 4

95 : x = -3691/142

x = 95 : (-3691/142)

x = -13490/3691
