Question

4. Solve the following equations.
(i) (12x - 7) - (5x + 6) = 3 -(8-2x)​

Answer 1

Answer:

9/5

Step-by-step explanation:

(12x-7)-(5x+6)=3-(8-2×)

12x-7-5x-6=3-8+2x

12x-5x-7-6=-5+2x

7x-13=-5+2x

7x-2x= -5+13

5x=9

x=9/5

Answer 2

Answer:

x = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

$(12x - 7) - (5x + 6) = 3 - (8 - 2x)$

(12x -7 ) - (5x+6)= 3 -(8-2x)

12x -7 - 5x -6 = 3 - 8 + 6x

7x - 13 = -5 +6x

7x -6x = -5 +13

x = 8
