Q1) u+2=4 subtract 2 from both sides
u = 2
Q2) 6= x+2/3 multiply through by 3
18 = 3x + 2 subtract 2 form both sides
16 = 3x divide both sides by 3
16 / 3 = x
Q3) 13+w/7=18 multiply through by 7
91 + w = 126 subtract 91 from both sides
w = 35
Q4) 17= -13-8x add13 to both sides
30 = -8x divide both sides by -8
30 / -8 = 15 / -4 = x
