 ANSWER KEY
Basic Algebra
Determine the value of the variable in each equation.

1. a+5=9 2. 15 - c = 12

a=4 c=3

45
3. 9 + 15 = y 4. =5 5. 10z = 100
d

y = 24 d=9 z = 10

t
6. =8 7. 6b = 66 8. 20 - g = 6
7

t = 56 b = 11 g = 14

48
9. 3 + r = 18 10. v - 14 = 26 11. = m
4

r = 15 v = 40 m = 12

16
12. 3s = 9 13. =1 14. 15 + 12 = q
h

s=3 h = 16 q = 27

121
15. = 11  4 + f = 13 - 2  5 + 3 = 4d
j

j = 11 f=7 d=2
