Question

(i) –2 (x + 3) =8 (ii) 0 = 18 + 2 (p – 6)

Answer 1

Answer:

heya mate ☺

$1) \: - 2(x + 3) = 8 \\ = > - 2x - 6 = 8 \\ = > - 2x = 8 + 6 \\ = > - 2x = 14 \\ = > x = \frac{14}{ - 2} \\ = > x = - 7 \\ \\ 2) \: 0 = 18 + 2(p - 6) \\ or \: 18 + 2(p - 6) = 0 \\ = > 18 + 2p - 12= 0 \\ = > 6 + 2p = 0 \\ = > 2p = - 6 \\ = > p = \frac{ - 6}{2} \\ = > p = - 3$

hope it helps u ✌

Answer 2

★Given :

(i) –2 (x + 3) =8

(ii) 0 = 18 + 2 (p – 6)

★Solution :

1)

$- 2(x + 3) = 8 \\ or \: - 2x - 6 = 8 \\ or \: - 2x = 8 + 6 = 14 \\ or \: x = - \frac{14}{2} = - 7$

______________________________________

2)

$0 = 18 + 2(p - 6) \\ or \: 2p - 12 = - 18 \\ or \: \: 2p = - 18 + 12 = - 6 \\ or \: p \: = - \frac{6}{2} = - 3$

Thanks :)
