Given -
- An equation = 4(x - 4) = 20
To -
- Solve and check the equation.
Solution -
Let 4(4 - x) be LHS & 20 be RHS, then -
→ 4x - 16 = 20
→ 4x = 20 + 16
→ 4x = 36
→ x = 36/4
→ x = 9.
Procedure -
• This question is from the linear equation.
• In this question we are given with an expression 4(x - 4) = 20. In this first we will multiply the 4 which is given outside the bracket with the 4 and x which is inside the bracket.
• The we will transpose -16 to the RHS side, and after that we will add 20 with 16 and will keep it 4x like this.
• We will add 16 with 20 because whenever we transpose any number to the other side the actual sign changes.
• After the we will find the value of x, which 9.
Checking/Verification -
We will place 9 in place of x -
→ 4[4 - (9)] = 20
→ 16 - 36 = 20
→ -20 = 20
LHS = RHS
Hence, proved!
