Question

solve for x. 3x-2=x+6

​

Answer 1

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

3x-2=x+6

taking x terms on one side

3x-x=6+2

solving it..

2x=8

x=8/2

therfore x=4.

Answer 2

Answer:

=> x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:-

$3x-2=x+6$

As we have to find the value of the equation,

For simplifying this expression we have to use the transposition method:

We have,

=> $3x-2=x+6$

Now, add both sides by $2$:

=> $3x-2+2=x+6+2$

Simplifying it further, we get

=> $3x=x+6+2$

Add the numbers,

=> $3x=x+8$

Subtract both sides by $x$:

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

=> $2x = 8$

Divide both sides by $2$, we get

=> $x = 4$

Hence, the required solution is 4.
