7-4    Solving a - x = b


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

1.    9 - n = -2                                              2.    -4 - n = 10                                                3.    -9 - n = 100
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

4.    40 - n -2 = -3                                      5.    -n + 2 = 8                                                6.    12.3 - n = -9.8
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

7.    12 - 3 - n = -3 -2                                   8.    3.5 - n = 5.5                                        9.    7.45 - n = -7.4
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

10.    2¼ - n = ¾                                       11.    12 - 50 - n = 0                                   12.    -9.8 - n = -9.8
