Let’s solve each equation one by one. We’ll isolate the variable (like x, y, t, etc.) on one side of the equals sign by doing the opposite operation to both sides.

---

1. x + 5 = 9
Subtract 5 from both sides:
x = 9 - 5 → x = 4

2. x + 7 = 15
Subtract 7:
x = 15 - 7 → x = 8

3. x + 1 = 8
Subtract 1:
x = 8 - 1 → x = 7

4. x + 11 = 21
Subtract 11:
x = 21 - 11 → x = 10

5. x + 6 = 4
Subtract 6:
x = 4 - 6 → x = -2

6. x + 4 = 4
Subtract 4:
x = 4 - 4 → x = 0

7. y + 20 = 32
Subtract 20:
y = 32 - 20 → y = 12

8. y + 12 = 30
Subtract 12:
y = 30 - 12 → y = 18

9. t + 8 = 101
Subtract 8:
t = 101 - 8 → t = 93

10. r + 0.5 = 9
Subtract 0.5:
r = 9 - 0.5 → r = 8.5

11. x - 1 = 10
Add 1:
x = 10 + 1 → x = 11

12. x - 5 = 2
Add 5:
x = 2 + 5 → x = 7

13. x - 8 = 20
Add 8:
x = 20 + 8 → x = 28

14. x - 9 = -3
Add 9:
x = -3 + 9 → x = 6

15. x - 3 = 21
Add 3:
x = 21 + 3 → x = 24

16. x - 7 = 4
Add 7:
x = 4 + 7 → x = 11

17. y - 10 = 34
Add 10:
y = 34 + 10 → y = 44

18. t - 52 = 11
Add 52:
t = 11 + 52 → t = 63

19. t - 3.5 = 9
Add 3.5:
t = 9 + 3.5 → t = 12.5

20. p - 21 = -4
Add 21:
p = -4 + 21 → p = 17

21. 2x = 12
Divide by 2:
x = 12 ÷ 2 → x = 6

22. 5x = 15
Divide by 5:
x = 15 ÷ 5 → x = 3

23. 3x = -6
Divide by 3:
x = -6 ÷ 3 → x = -2

24. 8x = 32
Divide by 8:
x = 32 ÷ 8 → x = 4

25. 4x = 14
Divide by 4:
x = 14 ÷ 4 → x = 3.5

26. 9x = -27
Divide by 9:
x = -27 ÷ 9 → x = -3

27. 6x = 31
Divide by 6:
x = 31 ÷ 6 → x ≈ 5.166... or as fraction x = 31/6

But since this is likely expecting decimal or exact value — we’ll write it as x = 31/6 unless told otherwise. But let’s check if they want decimals? Looking at others, some are decimals. Let’s keep as fraction for accuracy, but maybe simplify? 31 and 6 have no common factors → x = 31/6

Wait — actually, in school problems like this, sometimes they expect decimal. 31 ÷ 6 = 5.166..., which is repeating. But perhaps leave as fraction? Let me see problem 29: 3y=17 → same thing. I think we should give exact values. So:

x = 31/6

But let’s double-check instructions — “solve accurately”. Fraction is more accurate. Okay.

Actually, looking ahead — problem 30 has 3.5p = 10.5 → that’s decimal. Maybe they accept fractions or decimals. To be safe, I’ll use decimals where easy, fractions when needed.

But 31/6 is fine. Alternatively, mixed number? No, better improper fraction or decimal. Since 31÷6=5.166..., and it repeats, better to write as fraction.

I’ll go with x = 31/6

But wait — let’s look at problem 25: 4x=14 → x=3.5, which is decimal. So maybe they prefer decimals. Hmm.

Actually, 31/6 is approximately 5.1667, but since it’s not terminating, perhaps leave as fraction. I think for consistency, I’ll use fractions when not whole numbers, unless decimal is clean.

But let’s proceed and decide per problem.

For now: x = 31/6

28. 11x = 88
Divide by 11:
x = 88 ÷ 11 → x = 8

29. 3y = 17
Divide by 3:
y = 17 ÷ 3 → y = 17/3 (or ≈5.666...)

Again, fraction is exact → y = 17/3

30. 3.5p = 10.5
Divide both sides by 3.5:
p = 10.5 ÷ 3.5

Calculate: 10.5 ÷ 3.5 = ?
Well, 3.5 × 3 = 10.5 → so p = 3

31. 2x + 1 = 13
First subtract 1:
2x = 12
Then divide by 2:
x = 6 → x = 6

32. 5x - 2 = 23
Add 2:
5x = 25
Divide by 5:
x = 5 → x = 5

33. 8t + 3 = 43
Subtract 3:
8t = 40
Divide by 8:
t = 5 → t = 5

34. 4x + 10 = 42
Subtract 10:
4x = 32
Divide by 4:
x = 8 → x = 8

35. 7x - 2 = 65
Add 2:
7x = 67
Divide by 7:
x = 67/7 → x = 67/7 (≈9.571...)

Exact value: x = 67/7

36. 3y + 4 = -11
Subtract 4:
3y = -15
Divide by 3:
y = -5 → y = -5

37. 6t + 7 = 28
Subtract 7:
6t = 21
Divide by 6:
t = 21/6 = 7/2 → t = 3.5 or 7/2

Since 21÷6=3.5, and it’s exact decimal → t = 3.5

38. 7x - 1 = 25
Add 1:
7x = 26
Divide by 7:
x = 26/7 → x = 26/7 (≈3.714...)

Exact: x = 26/7

39. 3p - 4 = -2
Add 4:
3p = 2
Divide by 3:
p = 2/3 → p = 2/3

40. 12q + 3 = 36
Subtract 3:
12q = 33
Divide by 12:
q = 33/12 = 11/4 → q = 11/4 or 2.75

Since 33÷12=2.75 exactly → q = 2.75

Now, let’s list all answers clearly.

Note: For fractions that can be simplified, we did. For decimals that terminate, we used them. For non-terminating, we kept fractions.
