h) 20+18x-3x+4=x+48-3x+10
i) 37 + 9x + 13x = -2x + 133
​

Answer 1

$e)5x + 9 - x = 2x + 17 \\ 4x + 9 = 2x + 17 \\ 4x - 2x = 17 - 9 \\ 2x = 8 \\ x = 4$

$f)10x - 5 + 2x = 16 + 5x + 14 \\ 12x - 5 = 30 + 5 x\\ 12x - 5x = 30 + 5 \\ 7x = 35 \\ x = 5$

$g)124 + 9x - 6 = 36 + 3x + 12 \\ 118 + 9x = 48 + 3x \\ 9x - 3x = 48 - 118 \\ 6x = - 70 \\ x = - \frac{70}{6} = -35/3$

$h)20 + 18x - 3x + 4 = x + 48 - 3x + 10 \\ 24 + 15x = - 2x + 58 \\ 15x + 2x = 58 - 24 \\17x = 34 \\ x = 2$

$i)37 + 9x + 13x = - 2x + 133 \\ 37 + 22x = - 2x + 133 \\ 22x + 2x = 133 - 37 \\ 24x = 96 \\ x = 4$
