Question

Ahmad is thinking of a number.
If he multiples the number by 2 and adds 14, the result is the
same as if he subtracts 8 from 4 times the number.

Let the number be x. write an equation in terms of x
Solve the equation.
Find the result.​

Answer 1

Quadratic equation is

2x+14 =4x-8

Bring all the x co-efficients to one side and constants to one side , then we get

1. 4x-2x=14+8
2. 2x=22
3. x= 22/2=11

• so for the value of x = 11 the given equation is suitable
• If the answer is correct and if you like it, then
• Mark it as a brainleist answer and thank me

Answer 2

Answer:

Let x be the unknown

1st line=2x+14

2nd line =4x-8

Therefore,since the results are the same

The equation,

2x+14=4x-8

2x-4x=-8-14

-2x=-22

Divide both sides by the coefficient of x

-2x/-2 =-22/-2

X=11
