Answer:

a) x = 3

b) x = 10

c) x = 28

Explanation:

a)

[tex]\sf 6x + 3 = 21[/tex]

collect term

[tex]\sf 6x = 21-3[/tex]

simplify

[tex]\sf 6x = 18[/tex]

divide both both sides by 6

[tex]\sf x = 3[/tex]

b)

[tex]\sf 15(x - 5) = 75[/tex]

distribute

[tex]\sf 15x - 75 = 75[/tex]

collect terms

[tex]\sf 15x = 75 + 75[/tex]

combine

[tex]\sf 15x = 150[/tex]

divide both sides by 15

[tex]\sf x = 10[/tex]

c)

[tex]\sf \frac{3}{4} x +5 = 26[/tex]

collect like terms

[tex]\sf \frac{3}{4} x = 26-5[/tex]

combine

[tex]\sf \frac{3}{4} x = 21[/tex]

cross multiply

[tex]\sf x = \frac{ 21 (4)}{3}[/tex]

simplify

[tex]\sf x =28[/tex]
