Answer 2

Question

• 4x + 8x = 17x - 9 - 1.Find the value of x

Solution

______________________________________

______________________________________

$\tt\bold{ ⟼4x + 8x = 17x - 9 - 1}$

$\tt\bold{⟼12x = 17x - 10}$

$\tt\bold{⟼12x - 17x = - 10}$

$\tt\bold{⟼ - 5x = - 10}$

$\tt\bold{⟼x = \frac{ - 10}{ - 5} }$

⟼$x = \tt\cancel{ \frac{ - 10}{ - 5} } = 2$

Verification

$\tt\bold{⟼4(2) + 8(2) = 17(2) - 9 - 1}$

$\tt\bold{⟼8 + 16 = 34 - 10}$

$\tt\bold{⟼24 = 24}$

$\tt\bold{⟼lhs = rhs}$

$\tt\bold{⟼hence \: verified \: }$
