Question

please solve the linear equation and verify the solution.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

4 - 2(x - 4)/3 = 1/2(2x + 5)

=> 4 - 2x/3 + 8/3 = x + 5/2

=> x + 2x/3 = 20/3 - 5/2

=> 5x/3 =  25/6

=> x = 25/6 * 3/5 = 5/2 = 2.5

Verification:

4  - 2 (5/2 - 4)/3 = 1/2(2*5/2+5)

=> 4 + 2*1.5/3 = 1/2(5 +5 )

=> 5 = 5

Hence verifed.
