Variables on both sides
Printable practice with an answer key the engine computes, at three levels, in as many versions as you need.
Problem types
- ax ± b = cx ± d: 5x − 4 = 2x + 8
- a(x ± b) = cx ± d (one side distributes): 2(x + 3) = 5x − 9
- a(x ± b) ± cx = d(x ± e) ± f (both sides distribute): 5(x + 2) − x = 2(x − 1) + 18
Sample Sheet · Level 1
- 4x − 3 = 6x − 13
- 4x − 4 = 6x − 28
- 4x − 6 = 6x − 24
- −5 + 2x = 39 + 6x
- 7x − 2 = 9x + 2
- 8x − 6 = 4x − 30
- 5x − 7 = x + 9
- 6x − 1 = 3x − 16
Answer key
- x = 5
- x = 12
- x = 9
- x = −11
- x = −2
- x = −6
- x = 4
- x = −5
Sample Sheet · Level 3
- −22 + 4x = −25 + x
- 5 + 2x = 18 + 4x
- 2x + 16 = 6x + 25
- 6(x − 4) = 2x − 72
- 6(x − 2) = 2x − 46
- 3(x − 7) − 2x = 4(x + 5) − 68
- 5(x − 2) + 2x = 2(x + 8) − 56
- x + 5(x − 9) = 3(x − 1) − 48
Answer key
- x = −1
- x = −132 = −612
- x = −94 = −214
- x = −12
- x = −172 = −812
- x = 9
- x = −6
- x = −2
