Question

3a-4=2(4-a)
Solve the equation

Answer 1

Answer:

3a-4=2(4-a)

3a-4=8-2a

3a+2a=8+4

5a=10

a=10/5

a=2

Answer 2

Answer:

=> The value of a is $\frac{12}{5}$.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:-

$3a-4=2(4-a)$

To find:- The value of the expression,

To find the value of x, we must apply the transposition method:

As we have,

=> $3a-4=2(4-a)$

Rearrange the terms, we get

=> $3a-4=2(-a+4)$

Now distribute the terms,

=> $3a-4=-2a+8$

Add both sides by $4$, we get

=> $3a-4+4=-2a+8+4$

=> $3a=-2a+12$

Now, add both sides by $2a$:

=> $3a+2a=-2a+12+2a$

=> $5a = 12$

Divide both sides by 5,

=> $a = \frac{12}{5}$

Hence, the required solution is $\frac{12}{5}$.
