Question

(1)(x+1)-2(x-1)=1-3x (2)4(x-2)-12x=24-3(x+1) (3)2(4y+5)-3(3y

Answer 1

(1)(x+1)-2(x-1)=1-3x

x+1-2x+2=1-3x

3-x=1-3x

2x=-2

x=-1

(2)4(x-2)-12x=24-3(x+1)

4x-8-12x=24-3x-3

-8x-8=21-3x

5x=-29

x=-29/5

(3)2(4y+5)-3(3y-2)=1

8y+10-9y+6=1

16-y=1

y=15

(4)x-(x-1)=21-(x+3)

x-x+1=21-x-3

1=18-x

x=17
