Question

() 7(x - 2) = 2(x-4) solve and check the answer linear equation​

Answer 1

Answer:

heya mate ☺

$7(x - 2) = 2(x - 4) \\ \\ = > 7x - 14 = 2x - 8 \\ \\ = > 7x - 2x = - 8 + 14 \\ \\ = > 5x = 6 \\ \\ = > x = \frac{6}{5}$

✔ Verification of my answer :

$7( \frac{6}{5} - 2) = 2( \frac{6}{5} - 4) \\ \\ = > 7( \frac{6 - 10}{5} ) = 2( \frac{6 - 20}{5} ) \\ \\ = > 7( \frac{ - 4}{5} ) =2 ( \frac{ - 14}{5} ) \\ \\ = > \frac{ - 28}{5} = \frac{ - 28}{5} \\ \\ hence \: verified$

✔ hope it helps u mate ✔

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

7x-14=2x-8

7x-2x= -8+14

5x=6

x=6/5

x=1.2
