Question

find the X value in (X + 2) =3 (x- 8)​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

(x + 2) = 3 (x - 8)

=> x + 2 = 3x - 24

=> 2 + 24 = 3x - x

=> 26 = 2x

=> 2x = 26

=> x $= \frac{26}{2}$

=> x = 13

HENCE, the value of x is 13.

Answer 2

Answer: x=13

(x+2)=3(x-8)

open the bracket

x+2=3x-24

3x-x=2+24

2x=26

then divide by two both sides

x=13
