Forming and Solving Linear Equations

Solve each equation for x, or form your own equation from the word problem and solve it.

  1. 1.
    Solve for x: 6x + 1 = -59
  2. 2.
    Solve for x: 3x - 6 = -9
  3. 3.
    Solve for x: 9x - 7 = -7
  4. 4.
    Solve for x: 8x + 11 = -21
  5. 5.
    Solve for x: 3(x - 6) = -15
  6. 6.
    Solve for x: 4(x - 3) = -24
  7. 7.
    Solve for x: 2(x - 5) = -6
  8. 8.
    Solve for x: 7(x + 8) = 49
  9. 9.
    Solve for x: 4x + 0 = 2x + 8
  10. 10.
    Solve for x: 7x - 8 = 4x + 1
  11. 11.
    Solve for x: 2x - 7 = 3x - 13
  12. 12.
    I think of a number, multiply it by 7, then adds 15. The result is 50. Form an equation using x for the number, and solve it to find the number.
  13. 13.
