Section 1:
1) 3x
2) x + 3
3) 2x + 3
4) 1/2x OR x/2
5) x + 35 = 82, x = 47
6) 5x = 185, x = 37
7) x - 5 = 17, x = 22
8) 2x + 4 = 26, x = 11
9) x + 13 = 27, x = 14
10) 4x - 47 = 293, x = 85
Section 2:
1) x = -6
2) x = 15
3) x = 3/4, or 0.75
4) x = -2
5) x = -4
Section 3
1) 20 + 0.50x = 10 + 0.75x, x = 40
2) 5 + 0.05x = 3 + 0.25x, x = 10
3) 53 + 5x = 27 + 8x, x = 26/3, or 8.67
