Question

If 4x+2=x+8, then the value of x

Answer 1

Answer:

The value of x is 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

In context to the question asked,

We have to determine the value of x,

As per data given in the question,

We have,

$4x+2=x+8$

Here, we use the transposition method:

Now, subtract both sides by $2$:

=> $4x+2-2=x+8-2$

Simplifying it further, we get

=> $4x=x+8-2$

Subtract the numbers,

=> $4x=x+6$

Now, transposing $x$ on the left side:

=> $4x-x=6$

Combine the like terms,

=> $3x = 6$

Divide both sides by $3$,

=> $x = 2$

Hence, the required solution is 2.

Answer 2

Answer:

We will get the value of x=2.

Step-by-step explanation:

              Given data:- $4x+2=x+8.$

              To find:- Value of x.

              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.

       $4x+2=x+8\\=>4x=x+8-2\\=>4x=x+6\\=>4x-x=6\\=>3x=6\\=>x=\frac{6}{3} \\=>x=2$
