7-3    Solving x - a = b


Solve each equation.  Show your work in the space provided.

1.    n - -4 = -20                                                2.    -6 = n - 4                                                3.    n - ¾ = 8
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

4.    n + -3 = -12                                                5.    -1.2  + n = -4.3                                6.    n - 8.7 = 9.99
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

7.    n - 5.66 = -1                                            8.    n - (-7) = -7                                    9.    -4 + 2 + n = -6 + -3
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

10.    n - 8 - 3 = 3 + 100                                11.    n - 9 = 10                                    12.    n - (-7) - 40 = -8
