Algebra Word Problems

-->
Algebra is an important lesson to learn. I would like to take you through on algebra word problems. I would also like to show your some sample problems on algebra word problems so that you understand better with the illustration.
Simple algebra word problems include the problems with multiple choice answers. irrespective of the complexities involved in the problem, one can decide which answer from the multiple choice given is correct.

Find more solved algebra word problems on solving equations

Question - Which of the following equations have x=2, y=3 as solution ?
(a) 8x-y = 12 (b) 2x+3y = 10
Answer - (a) Substitute x=2, y=3 in 8x-y=12
8(2)-3=12
16-3=12
-->13 = 12
x=2, y=3 is not a solution of 8x-y=12
(b) Substitute x=2, y=3 in 2x+3y=10
2(2)+3(3)=10
4+9=10
13=10
x=2, y=3 is not a solution of 2x+3y=10.
