3 6 5
2. If the area of triangle is 35 cm2 , find the value of 𝑥.

3. I think of a number, multiply it by 8 and add 5. This gives me the same answer as
when I subtract the number from 50. What is the number?

4. Jess has $𝑥. She earns $30. She now has three times his original sum.
How much did She have to start with?

5. Kyla thinks of a number. She doubles it, subtract with 7 and them trebles the result.
