Answer 1

Answer:

Given -

5(6x - 1) = 3(8 + x ) -2

To -

Solving the equation by transposition method.

Solution -

Let LHS be 5(6x - 1) and RHS be 3(8 + x) -2

On solving the equation -

→ 30x - 5 = 24 + 3x - 2

→ 30x - 3x = 24 - 2 + 5

→ 27x = 27

→ x = 27/27

\implies⟹ x = 1

\therefore∴ Value of x is 1

Checking the Answer -

By placing 1 in place of x -

5(6(1) - 1) = 3(8 + (1)) -2

→ 5(6 - 1) = 24 + 3 - 2

→ 30 - 5 = 27 - 2

→ 25 = 25

\therefore∴ LHS = RHS
