The number of problems assigned initially to each student by Lin’s teacher is 4

According to the problem

Five students came for after-school tutoring.

Lin’s teacher assigned each of them the same number of problems to complete.

Then he assigned each student 2 more problems.

30 problems were assigned in all.

we have to use x as the variable.

Total number of problems assigned by Lin's teacher to students = 30

Let the total number of problems assigned to each student initially be x

So, the number of problems assigned to all the students initially = 5x

Also it is given that Lin's teacher assigns 2 more problems to each student

which means he gives 10 more problems to solve

So the total number of problems given to the students can be written in the form of equation (1)

[tex]\rm 5x +10 = 30 \\5x = 30-10\\5x = 20\\\bold{x = 4}[/tex]

So, The number of problems assigned initially to each student by Lin’s teacher is 4.
