Answer 2

Given equation:

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

____________________

Solution:

We are given this equation,

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

Now, let's solve it!

____________________

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

$\implies \sf {6x-6-2x-10 = 8}$

$\sf \purple {Taking\ the\ like\ terms\ on\ one\ side,}$

$\implies \sf {6x-2x -6-10 = 8}$

$\implies \sf {4x-16 = 8}$

$\implies \sf {4x = 8+16}$

$\implies \sf {4x = 24}$

$\implies \sf {x = \dfrac{24}{4}}$

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf {\green {x=6}}}}$

____________________

Verification:

On substituting the value of x as 6 in the equation,

$\implies \sf {6(x-1) - 2(x+5) = 8}$

$\implies \sf {6(6-1) - 2(6+5) = 8}$

$\implies \sf {6×5 - 2×11 = 8}$

$\implies \sf {30 - 22 = 8}$

$\implies \sf {8 = 8}$

LHS = RHS

Hence Verified!

Final answer:

$\bigstar \sf {Value\ of\ x\ is\ 6.}$
