A sampling of solving for x from Jesse's math worksheet today

3x - 3 = 33

6 + 5x = 21

6- 2x - 3x = 6

-2 = 4x- 5x + 10

-101 = 6x + 4x + 9

7 - 5x + x = 7

-2x = 6 -7x = -57

-19 = 2x + x + 5

He did a page of these and he had to do a couple over (because of inattention, not because of not understanding the process) but got them too after being told to redo them. I think he's doing pretty well for a third grader.

6- 2x - 3x = 6
7 - 5x + x = 7

These two are the same problem!

Yes, student math drills are frequently repetitive, lol. But I am in awe that you looked close enough to figure it out. My eyes sort of glaze over when I see a bunch of numbers.
