Question

-8 (7 + 3x) = 34 - 6x

Answer 1

-56+-24x=34-6x
-24x+6x=34+56
-18x=90
x=-5

Answer 2

Answer:

=> The value of x is $-5$.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:-

$-8 (7 + 3x) = 34 - 6x$

To find:- The value of the expression,

To find the value of x, we must apply the transposition method:

As we have,

=> $-8 (7 + 3x) = 34 - 6x$

Here we have to rearrange the terms,

=> $-8 ( 3x+7) = - 6x+34$

Distributing the terms, we get

=> $-24x-56 = - 6x+34$

Add both sides by $56$, we get

=> $-24x-56 +56= - 6x+34+56$

Simplifying it further,

=> $-24x= - 6x+34+56$

Add the numbers,

=> $-24x= - 6x+90$

Add $6x$ on both sides,

=> $-24x+6x= - 6x+90+6x$

=> $-18x = 90$

Divide both sides by $-18$,

=> $x = -5$

Hence, the required solution is -5.
