Question

s + 4 = 8
s =

Answer 1

j - 1 = 1
j =

Answer 2

To solve the equation \( s + 4 = 8 \), you need to isolate \( s \).

Subtract 4 from both sides:

\[
s + 4 - 4 = 8 - 4
\]

This simplifies to:

\[
s = 4
\]

So, \( s = 4 \).

Answer 3

To solve the equation \( j - 1 = 1 \), you need to isolate \( j \).

Add 1 to both sides:

\[
j - 1 + 1 = 1 + 1
\]

This simplifies to:

\[
j = 2
\]

So, \( j = 2 \).
