Looks who's back with more word fun!
Complete the equation ~
X + not all
X + scarf
porch + X
cultivate + X
X + composing
X + smack
links warning + X
sponsor + X
X + jump
X + virgin
beneath + X
fleeting + X
X + speedy
X + away
dais + X
silver + X
X + rev
X + not at work
Helpful Info If You Need It:
1) X is the same value in all equations.
2) If the equations included "X + cutting implement" and "leaping + X", you might conclude the answers were "Jack Knife" and "Jumping Jack", where X = Jack
3) X does not = Jack in the puzzle above.
So X is the same in all of these?
Fucking Algebra!!! Ask Jean just how skilled I am at Algebra!.

Stroppy has them all, but since they are in spoiler tags, does anyone else wish to try?
Would the Riddle master please explain these two so i may better understand the format?
Sponsor + X = Backhand
X + rev = Handgun

Sponsor + X = Backhand - To Sponsor something would be too "Back" it
X + rev = Handgun - If you rev an engine, it is sometimes known as "Gunning" It (That one took me a while :))
Updated with explanation
Thank you so much, Stroppy!
