Explanation:

Step1: Solve \(x + 3=5\)

Subtract 3 from both sides: \(x=5 - 3\).

Step2: Calculate \(5-3\)

\(x = 2\).

Step3: Solve \(50+x=-11\)

Subtract 50 from both sides: \(x=-11 - 50\).

Step4: Calculate \(-11-50\)

\(x=-61\).

Step5: Solve \(-18\frac{1}{2}+3\frac{1}{2}=x\)

Convert to improper fractions: \(-\frac{37}{2}+\frac{7}{2}=x\). Then \(\frac{-37 + 7}{2}=x\), \(\frac{-30}{2}=x\), \(x=-15\).

Step6: Solve \(-12+x=21\)

Add 12 to both sides: \(x=21 + 12\), \(x = 33\).

Step7: Solve \(x+7=-10\)

Subtract 7 from both sides: \(x=-10-7\), \(x=-17\).

Step8: Solve \(x - 11=-3\)

Add 11 to both sides: \(x=-3 + 11\), \(x = 8\).

Step9: Solve \(x-1=16\)

Add 1 to both sides: \(x=16 + 1\), \(x = 17\).

Step10: Solve \(x-(-4)=-8\)

Simplify: \(x + 4=-8\), subtract 4: \(x=-8-4\), \(x=-12\).

Step11: Solve \(x + 15=-15\)

Subtract 15: \(x=-15-15\), \(x=-30\).

Step12: Solve \(19+x=5\)

Subtract 19: \(x=5-19\), \(x=-14\).

Step13: Solve \(20=x + 17\)

Subtract 17: \(x=20-17\), \(x = 3\).

Step14: Solve \(21+x=42\)

Subtract 21: \(x=42-21\), \(x = 21\).

Step15: Solve \(8=x+(-13)\)

Simplify: \(8=x - 13\), add 13: \(x=8 + 13\), \(x = 21\).

Step16: Solve \(x=15.2-17\)

\(x=-1.8\).

Step17: Solve \(x-2.5=-2.5\)

Add 2.5: \(x=-2.5 + 2.5\), \(x = 0\).

Answer:

The solutions are \(x = 2\) for \(x + 3=5\), \(x=-61\) for \(50+x=-11\), \(x=-15\) for \(-18\frac{1}{2}+3\frac{1}{2}=x\), \(x = 33\) for \(-12+x=21\), \(x=-17\) for \(x + 7=-10\), \(x = 8\) for \(x - 11=-3\), \(x = 17\) for \(x-1=16\), \(x=-12\) for \(x-(-4)=-8\), \(x=-30\) for \(x + 15=-15\), \(x=-14\) for \(19+x=5\), \(x = 3\) for \(20=x + 17\), \(x = 21\) for \(21+x=42\), \(x = 21\) for \(8=x+(-13)\), \(x=-1.8\) for \(x=15.2-17\), \(x = 0\) for \(x-2.5=-2.5\).
