Question

Find the value of 'q' from the below given equation. 2 − 5q = 3q − 14.​

Answer 1

Answer:

The value of 'q' in the given equation is 2

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question we have been asked to find the value of q from the given equation 2 − 5q = 3q − 14.

first of all, will we move the constants to the right-hand side and collect the variables on the left-hand side as shown below:

⇒-5q-3q=-14-2

⇒-8q=-16

Now we will cancel the negative sign from both sides.

⇒​8q=16

⇒ q = 16 ÷ 8

⇒q=2

Hence the value of q in the given equation is 2.

Answer 2

Answer:

We will get the value of q is 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

• We have to evaluate the above expression by using the given data.

              Given data:- $2-5q=3q-14.$

             To find:- Value of q.

              Solution:-

• Here we will use the transposition method.

• Transposition is one of the linear equations.

• To solve the transposition method we will Identify the variables and constants.

• Then we Simplify the equation in LHS and RHS.

• Now Simplify the equation using arithmetic operations.

          $2-5q=3q-14\\=>-5q+2=3q-14\\=>-5q=3q-14-2\\=>-5q=3q-16\\=>-5q-3q=-16\\=>-8q=-16\\=>q=\frac{-16}{-8}\\=>q=2$
