Basic Solving Practice

( \newcommand{\kernel}{\mathrm{null}\,}\)

Solve for x.

1. 2x + 3 = 7

2. 4x - 5 = 15

3. \frac{3x}{2} + 4 = 10

4. 5x - 2 = 3x + 6

5. 7 - x = 2x + 8

6. \frac{x - 1}{3} = 2

7. 6x + 5 = 2x + 17

8. 3(x - 4) = 2x + 1

9. 2(x + 3) - 4 = 10

10. \frac{5x + 2}{4} = 3

11. 8 - \frac{x}{2} = 3

12. 4x + 7 = 3(x - 2)

13. 2(x + 5) = 3x - 4

14. \frac{2x - 3}{5} = \frac{x + 1}{2}

15. 6x - 8 = 4x + 10

16. \frac{3x + 4}{2} - 5 = 7

17. 9 - \frac{2x}{3} = 1

18. 4(x - 2) + 3 = 5x - 1

19. \frac{5x + 3}{3} = 2x + 1

20. 7x - 4 = 3x + 12

Solve the quadratic equations.

1. x^2 - 5x + 6 = 0

2. x^2 + 4x - 12 = 0

3. 2x^2 - 8x + 6 = 0

4. x^2 - 9 = 0

5. 3x^2 + 2x - 8 = 0

6. x^2 + 6x + 9 = 0

7. 4x^2 - 4x - 8 = 0

8. x^2 - 4x - 5 = 0

9. 2x^2 + 3x - 2 = 0

10. x^2 - 2x - 15 = 0

11. x^2 + 2x - 35 = 0

12. 3x^2 - 14x + 8 = 0

13. 5x^2 - 20 = 0

14. x^2 + 8x + 16 = 0

15. 2x^2 - 5x + 3 = 0

16. x^2 - 6x + 8 = 0

17. 4x^2 + 7x - 2 = 0

18. x^2 - 3x - 10 = 0

19. 3x^2 + x - 4 = 0

20. x^2 + 5x + 6 = 0

Solve the absolute value equations.

1. |x - 3| = 7

2. |2x + 1| = 5

3. |x + 4| = 9

4. |3x - 2| = 4

5. |x - 5| = 3x - 7

6. |2x - 1| = 6

7. |x + 2| = |x - 4|

8. |x - 1| = 2x + 3

9. |x + 5| = 2x - 1

10. |3x + 4| = |x - 2|
