Question

8=2x-6
pls find it pleaseeee​

Answer 1

Solve the equation :-

$\sf Q) \: 8 = 2x - 6$

Transposing 6 from RHS to LHS, changing it's sign,

$\sf \Rightarrow8 + 6 = 2x$

On simplifying,

$\sf \Rightarrow14 = 2x$

Transposing 2 from RHS to LHS, changing it's sign,

$\sf \Rightarrow\dfrac{14}{2} = x$

Dividing 14 by 2,

$\sf \Rightarrow7 = x$

Changing the sides,

$\sf \Rightarrow x = 7.$

Verification :-

To check our answer, let's put 7 in place of x and see whether LHS = RHS.

Replacing x by 7, we get :-

RHS

$\sf \Rightarrow2 \times 7 - 6$

Applying the BODMAS rule and multiplying 2 by 7 first,

$\sf\Rightarrow14 - 6$

Subtracting the numbers,

$\sf\Rightarrow8.$

LHS

$\sf\Rightarrow8.$

Since LHS = RHS,

Hence verified!
