Let's solve each equation step by step and match them with the correct solutions.

  1. Equation: \( 6x + 4 = 10x - 8 \)
    Solution:
    \( 6x + 4 = 10x - 8 \)
    Rearranging gives us:
    \( 4 + 8 = 10x - 6x \)
    \( 12 = 4x \)
    \( x = 3 \)

  2. Equation: \( 3x - 5 = 2x + 10 \)
    Solution:
    \( 3x - 5 = 2x + 10 \)
    Rearranging gives us:
    \( 3x - 2x = 10 + 5 \)
    \( x = 15 \)

  3. Equation: \( 4x - 3 = 2x + 5 \)
    Solution:
    \( 4x - 3 = 2x + 5 \)
    Rearranging gives us:
    \( 4x - 2x = 5 + 3 \)
    \( 2x = 8 \)
    \( x = 4 \)

  4. Equation: \( 7x - 2 = 4x + 13 \)
    Solution:
    \( 7x - 2 = 4x + 13 \)
    Rearranging gives us:
    \( 7x - 4x = 13 + 2 \)
    \( 3x = 15 \)
    \( x = 5 \)

Final Matches:

  • \( 6x + 4 = 10x - 8 \) → \( x = 3 \)
  • \( 3x - 5 = 2x + 10 \) → \( x = 15 \)
  • \( 4x - 3 = 2x + 5 \) → \( x = 4 \)
  • \( 7x - 2 = 4x + 13 \) → \( x = 5 \)

Responses:

  • \( x = 3 \) (for \( 6x + 4 = 10x - 8 \))
  • \( x = 15 \) (for \( 3x - 5 = 2x + 10 \))
  • \( x = 4 \) (for \( 4x - 3 = 2x + 5 \))
  • \( x = 5 \) (for \( 7x - 2 = 4x + 13 \))
