    How to solve them

    1. Look at what's been done to x: something added, subtracted, multiplied or divided.
    2. Do the opposite to both sides.
    3. Check: put your answer back into the original equation.

    Check the key only once you've finished. A wrong answer is useful: find the first line where your working went wrong, fix that, and redo the problem.
