It's Disappointing How Many People Can't Solve For X In These Simple Equations — Can You?

C'mon, this should be easy.

For each of the following equations, find the value of X.

  1. x + 35 = 79

  2. 21 + 12 + X = 59

  3. 32 + X = 13

  4. 55 - X = 18

  5. X - 15 = -9

  6. X + 11 - 9 = 31

  7. -5X = -65

  8. 8X - X = 49

  9. 6X + 4X = 40

  10. 6X ÷ -9 = -8

  11. 5X x 3 = 75

  12. 12X + 9 - 14 = 7
