Question

Slove by transposing method:

(a) 6(x +3) = -18
(i) 0
(ii) 6
(iii) -6
(iv) none


(b)4(3/2 + 1/2) = x
(i) -8
(ii) 8
(iii) 2
(iv) none


(c) 3(k - 8) = 1
(i) -23/3
(ii) 25/3
(iii) 1/3
(iv) none of the above​

Answer 1

a) 6x + 18 = -18

= 6x = 18 -18

= 6x = 0

= x = 0/6

= x = 0 (i)

b ) 4(3/2 + 1/2) = x

= 4 ( 4/2 ) = x

= 2× 4 = x

8 = x (ii)

c) 3(k - 8) = 1

3k - 24 = 1

3k = 1+ 24

3k = 25

k = 25/3 (ii)

Hope this all answer will helpfull for you .

Thankyou !!

Answer 2

Answer:

a ) ( iii )

6 ( x + 3 ) = -18

6x + 18 = -18

6x = -18 - 18

6x = -36

x = -36 / 6

x = -6

b ) ( ii )

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

4 ( 4 / 2 ) = x

4 ( 2 ) = x

8 = x

c ) ii

3 ( k - 8 ) = 1

3k - 24 = 1

3k = 1 + 24

3k = 25

k = 25 / 3
