10)  

Solve 

3 - x = 9

x = -6


Answer:_______________




 

1)  

Solve 

5 - a = 12

a = -7


SOLUTION 1 :

5 - a = 12

⇒ - a = 12 - 5        ( on transposing +5 becomes - 5 )

⇒ - a = 7

⇒  (-1) (-a ) = (-1) 7   ( multiplying by (-1), both sides )

a = -7

 



2)  

Solve 

13 - x = -8

x = 21


SOLUTION 1 :

13 - x = -8

⇒ - x = -8 - 13        ( on transposing +13 becomes - 13 )

⇒ - x = -21

⇒  (-1) (-x ) = (-1) -21   ( multiplying by (-1), both sides )

x = 21

 



3)  

Solve 

14 - y = 5

y = 9


SOLUTION 1 :

14 - y = 5

⇒ - y = 5 - 14        ( on transposing +14 becomes - 14 )

⇒ - y = -9

⇒  (-1) (-y ) = (-1) -9   ( multiplying by (-1), both sides )

y = 9

 



4)  

Solve 

5 - x = 9

x = -4


SOLUTION 1 :

5 - x = 9

⇒ - x = 9 - 5        ( on transposing +5 becomes - 5 )

⇒ - x = 4

⇒  (-1) (-x ) = (-1) 4   ( multiplying by (-1), both sides )

x = -4

 



5)  

Solve 

12 - a = -7

a = 19


SOLUTION 1 :

12 - a = -7

⇒ - a = -7 - 12        ( on transposing +12 becomes - 12 )

⇒ - a = -19

⇒  (-1) (-a ) = (-1) -19   ( multiplying by (-1), both sides )

a = 19

 



6)  

Solve 

15 - y = 5

y = 10


SOLUTION 1 :

15 - y = 5

⇒ - y = 5 - 15        ( on transposing +15 becomes - 15 )

⇒ - y = -10

⇒  (-1) (-y ) = (-1) -10   ( multiplying by (-1), both sides )

y = 10

 



7)  

Solve 

4 - x = 12

x = -8


SOLUTION 1 :

4 - x = 12

⇒ - x = 12 - 4        ( on transposing +4 becomes - 4 )

⇒ - x = 8

⇒  (-1) (-x ) = (-1) 8   ( multiplying by (-1), both sides )

x = -8

 



8)  

Solve 

14 - a = -8

a = 22


SOLUTION 1 :

14 - a = -8

⇒ - a = -8 - 14        ( on transposing +14 becomes - 14 )

⇒ - a = -22

⇒  (-1) (-a ) = (-1) -22   ( multiplying by (-1), both sides )

a = 22

 



9)  

Solve 

11 - y = 5

y = 6


SOLUTION 1 :

11 - y = 5

⇒ - y = 5 - 11        ( on transposing +11 becomes - 11 )

⇒ - y = -6

⇒  (-1) (-y ) = (-1) -6   ( multiplying by (-1), both sides )

y = 6

 



10)  

Solve 

3 - x = 9

x = -6


SOLUTION 1 :

3 - x = 9

⇒ - x = 9 - 3        ( on transposing +3 becomes - 3 )

⇒ - x = 6

⇒  (-1) (-x ) = (-1) 6   ( multiplying by (-1), both sides )

x = -6
