c) (x - 3) / 2 = 4
7. Arithmetic
Solve the following arithmetic problems:
a) The sum of three consecutive integers is 75. What are the integers?
b) If 2a + b = 35 and a - b = 7, find the values of a and b.
8. Problems Solved by Linear Equations
Solve the following real-life problems:
a) The perimeter of a rectangle is 48 cm. The length is 4 cm more than twice the width. Find the
dimensions of the rectangle.
b) A car rental company charges a flat rate of £50 plus £0.30 per kilometer driven. If the total bill was
