Question

Find the value of x, What is the value of x?

Answer 1

Given:

• 2(x+4) = 6(x-2)

To find:

• Value of x

Solution:

2(x+4) = 6(x-2)

=> 2x + 8 = 6x - 12

=> 2x - 6x = -12 - 8

=> -4x = -20

=> x = -20/-4

=> x = 5

Therefore,

• Value of x in given equation is 5

Answer 2

Answer:

Given:-

$2 ( x + 4 ) = 6 ( x - 2 )$ , what is the value of "x".

To Find:-

The value of "x".

Note:-

●》If there is any number or signs out of bracket, it will be multiplied to bracket value of all the numbers.

●》For solving a sums sometimes, we need to rearrange a term from one side to another, so~

+ becomes -

- becomes +

× becomes ÷

÷ becomes ×.

●》If there is a situation of negative into negative then the sum is always positive ( greater number sign ahould be put ) and if there is a situation of positive into negative then the sum is always negative ( greater number sign should be put ).

●》The sum is a equation and usually equation means both side term should be equal that L.H.S = R.H.S

Solution:-

☆ According to note first point ( multiplication of number to the bracket value )~

▪︎$2 ( x + 4 ) = 6 ( x - 2 )$

▪︎$2x + 8 = 6x - 12$

☆ Here, we need to take common terms one side together by rearranging ( note second point ) ~

▪︎$2x - 6x = (- 12) - 8$

☆ After doing both side term calculations and accordingly to note third point~

▪︎$- 4x = - 20$

☆ Now, we will rearrange 4 to another side, which is multiple form with "x"

▪︎$x = - 20 ÷ - 4$

☆ Minus - Minus will be canceled and after doing calculations~

▪︎$x = 5$

Checking:-

♤ According to note fourth point~

• $2 ( x + 4 ) = 6 ( x - 2 ) ?$

• $2 × 5 + 2 × 4 = 6 × 5 - 6 × 2 ?$

• $10 + 8 = 30 - 12 ?$

• $18 = 18 ?$

Yes!

Hence, proved that x = 5.

Answer:-

The value of x = 5
