Subtract 4 from both sides to get 9a = 36. Divide both sides by 9 to isolate a, resulting in a = 4 .

Multiplication must be undone through division; however, to isolate x, first expand and simplify. Solve the equation: multiply out the coefficients, simplify by moving terms using addition or subtraction, then divide by the coefficient of x to isolate it, ensuring the equation on both sides maintains equality .

Subtracting 2x from both sides results in 1 = -1, a contradiction indicating "No Solution." This occurs because the variable terms vanish and leave an impossibility .

To solve 9x − 3 = −14x + 20, first add 14x to both sides to get 23x - 3 = 20. Then add 3 to both sides resulting in 23x = 23. Divide both sides by 23 to isolate x, so x = 1 .

The equation + 5x/7 = −12 does not specify an expression on the left side. Typically, you would first eliminate fractions by multiplying both sides by 7, making it + 5x = −84. Then, solve for x by isolating it: first subtract any constants and then divide by the coefficient of x . Given the original problem lacks details, the operations should be done based on completing the reverse of the original operations described in a complete equation .

Subtract 3 from both sides to have 8y = 24. Divide both sides by 8 to solve for y, resulting in y = 3 .

Combine like terms on both sides to simplify: start with 8x - 10x = -2x and -9x on the other side, leading to -2x + 4 = 3 - 9x + 15. Simplify further: -2x + 4 = 18 - 9x. Add 9x to both sides to obtain 7x + 4 = 18, then subtract 4 to have 7x = 14. Finally, divide by 7 to get x = 2 .

An equation has "Infinitely Many Solutions" if the simplified form is a true identity like 0 = 0, indicating any value satisfies it. "No Solution" occurs when simplification results in a false statement like 0 = 5. "One Solution" means the equation simplifies to a specific value for the variable .

First, expand 3(x + 5) to get 3x + 15. The equation becomes 3x + 15 = 3x + 15, which simplifies to 0 = 0, indicating "Infinitely Many Solutions" since it is an identity where any value of x satisfies it .

Division is the operation that reverses multiplication. To solve equations involving multiplication, you divide both sides by the same number that x is multiplied with. For example, if the equation is 3x = 9, divide both sides by 3 to get x = 3 .
