1. $\frac{x}{5} - 2 = 9$
- Add 2 to both sides: $\frac{x}{5} = 11$
- Multiply both sides by 5: $x = 55$
2. $\frac{x}{3} = -20$
- Multiply both sides by 3: $x = -60$
3. $-45 = 4x + 5x$
- Combine like terms: $-45 = 9x$
- Divide both sides by 9: $x = -5$
4. $-8 - x = 11$
- Add 8 to both sides: $-x = 19$
- Multiply both sides by -1: $x = -19$
5. $\frac{x - 2}{6} = -4$
- Multiply both sides by 6: $x - 2 = -24$
- Add 2 to both sides: $x = -22$
6. $5 + \frac{x}{2} = 8$
- Subtract 5 from both sides: $\frac{x}{2} = 3$
- Multiply both sides by 2: $x = 6$
7. $\frac{x}{7} = 9$
- Multiply both sides by 7: $x = 63$
8. $24 + 4x = 6x$
- Subtract 4x from both sides: $24 = 2x$
- Divide both sides by 2: $x = 12$
9. $\frac{2}{5}x - 6 = 13$
- Add 6 to both sides: $\frac{2}{5}x = 19$
- Multiply both sides by $\frac{5}{2}$: $x = \frac{95}{2} = 47.5$
10. $x + 15 = 74$
- Subtract 15 from both sides: $x = 59$
11. $36 - x = 14$
- Subtract 36 from both sides: $-x = -22$
- Multiply both sides by -1: $x = 22$
12. $\frac{x + 6}{2} = 12$
- Multiply both sides by 2: $x + 6 = 24$
- Subtract 6 from both sides: $x = 18$
