Algebra

1) 8

Because- 5*8= 40

40+7= 47

2) Let us consider the two consecutive numbers to be x and x + 1.

X + x + 1= 65

2x + 1= 65

2x= 65-1
2x= 64

X= 64/2
X= 32

X + 1= 32 + 1

= 33

Numbers 32 and 33.

3) First basket X
Second basket Y
 X+Y= 96

Y= X+28

X + x + 28 = 96
2X= 96 – 28

X= 34

Y= 34 + 28= 62

So, one bucket has 34 and another has 62.

4) x + x + 1 + x +2 = 42
3x+3 = 42
3x = 42-3
3x = 39
x = 39/3
x = 13
So, the numbers are 13, 13+1 and 13+2
13,14,15

5) x + y= 32
x= 3y
(3y) + y= 32
4y= 32
Y= 8
X= 3(8) = 24

6) x + y = 68
x – y = 22
x – y + y = 22 + y
 x = 22 + y
(22 + y) + y = 68
22 + 2y = 68
2y = 46
Y= 23

X= 22 + 23 = 45

23 and 45

7) x + y = 94
y=x+2
x + (x + 2) = 94
2x + 2 = 94
2x = 92
X= 46

Y= 46 + 2 = 48

8) x + y + z = 162
y= 3x
z= 2x
 x + 3x + 2x = 162
6x = 162
X= 27
Y = 3(27) = 81
Z = 2(27) = 54

27, 81 and 54

9) x + y + z = 58
y=x+4
z = (x + 4) + 8 = x + 12
x + (x + 4) + (x + 12) = 58
3x + 16 = 58
3x = 42
X = 14
Y = 14 + 4 = 18
Z = (14 + 4) + 8 = 26

14, 18 and 26

10) y = x + 15
x = 2(15) = 30
y = 30 + 15 = 45
