Hi Class,

Question

Solve for x here.

5x=30

Then create your own example and respond to two of your classmates.

Answer 1

To solve for \( x \) in the equation:

\[ 5x = 30 \]

We divide both sides by 5:

\[ x = \frac{30}{5} \]

\[ x = 6 \]

Now, here's my own example:

Solve for \( y \):

\[ 4y + 8 = 32 \]

To solve for \( y \), first, we subtract 8 from both sides:

\[ 4y = 32 - 8 \]

\[ 4y = 24 \]

Next, we divide both sides by 4:

\[ y = \frac{24}{4} \]

\[ y = 6 \]

I look forward to responding to my classmates' examples!
