Question

4(x-2) =14
solve the equation
​

Answer 1

Answer:

4(x-2)=14

4x -8=14 (opening the brackets)

4x= 14 + 8 (sending 8 to RHS)

4x= 22

x= 22/4= 5.5

Answer 2

Question:-

4(x-2) =14

solve the equation

Answer:-

• The value of x is 5.5

Solution:-

$\large{ \tt: \implies \: \: \: \: 4(x - 2) = 14}$

$\large{ \tt: \implies \: \: \: \: 4x - 8 = 14}$

$\large{ \tt: \implies \: \: \: \: 4x = 14 + 8}$

$\large{ \tt: \implies \: \: \: \: 4x = 22}$

$\large{ \tt: \implies \: \: \: \: x = \frac{22}{4} }$

$\large{ \tt: \implies \: \: \: \: x = 5.5}$

• The value of x is 5.5

$\pink{ \mathfrak{ \large{ verification}}}$

$\large{ \tt: \implies \: \: \: \: 4(5.5 - 2) = 14}$

$\large{ \tt: \implies \: \: \: \:4(3.5) = 14}$

$\large{ \tt: \implies \: \: \: \:14 = 14}$
