Question

Solution of the equation 2x + 3 = 2 (x - 4) is ____ *

Answer 1

Answer:

2x+3=2(x-4)

2x+3=2x-8

3+8=2x-2x

11=0

11

Solution of the given equation is 11.

Answer 2

Answer:

=> It does not have any solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:-

$2x + 3 = 2 (x - 4)$

To find:- The value of the expression,

To solve this expression, we have to use the transposition method:  

As we have,

=> $2x + 3 = 2 (x - 4)$

Distributing the terms, we get

=> $2x + 3 = 2 x - 8$

Now subtract both sides by $3$,

=> $2x + 3-3 = 2 x - 8-3$

Simplifying it further, we get

=> $2x = 2x - 11$

Now subtract both sides by $2x$,

=> $2x -2x= 2x - 11-2x$

=> $0 = -11$

Hence, it does not have any solution.
