i)V = a^3, V is the volume of the cube, a is the length of the side of the cube.

ii)2x + 3 = 4, x stands for some number.

iii)3x − 10 = 73, x stands for some number.

iv)I = 100 M/A , where I is the I.Q., M is the mental age and A is the actual age.

v)P = 2(ℓ + b), P is the perimeter, ℓ is the length and b is the breadth.

vi)F = 32 + 1.8C, F is the temperature in Fahrenheit, C is the temperature in Centigrade
