Question

a) 135 - 5 (x + 4) = 35

b)25 + 3 (x - 8) = 106

Answer 1

a) 135 - 5 (x + 4) = 35

5(x+4)=135-35

5(x+4)=100

x+4=100:5

x+4=20

x=20-4

x=16

b)25 + 3 (x - 8) = 106

3 (x - 8)=106-25

3 (x - 8)=81

x-8=81:3

x-8=27

x=27+8

x=35

Answer 2

a,5(x+4)=135-35

5(x+4)=100

x+4=100:5

x+4=20

x=20-4

x=16

b,3(x-8)=106-25

3(x-8)=81

x-8=81:3

x-8=27

x=27+8

x=35
