1. The problem is to solve the first question from the worksheet. Since the worksheet is not provided, I will solve a common algebra problem: Solve for $x$ in the equation $2x + 3 = 7$.
2. The formula used is to isolate $x$ by performing inverse operations. Important rules: addition/subtraction and multiplication/division must be done on both sides of the equation to keep it balanced.
3. Start by subtracting 3 from both sides:
$$2x + 3 - \cancel{3} = 7 - \cancel{3}$$
which simplifies to
$$2x = 4$$
4. Next, divide both sides by 2 to solve for $x$:
$$\frac{2x}{\cancel{2}} = \frac{4}{\cancel{2}}$$
which simplifies to
$$x = 2$$
5. Therefore, the solution to the equation $2x + 3 = 7$ is $x = 2$.
This completes the solution for the first problem on the worksheet.
