Question

Solve for x
7( x - 6 ) = 56

Answer 1

Answer:

x=55

Step-by-step explanation:

7(x - 6) =56

x=56 + 6 - 7

x= 55

Answer 2

Answer:

=> x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:-

$7( x - 6 ) = 56$

To find:- The value of the expression:

Here we will use the transposition method.

As we have,

=> $7( x - 6 ) = 56$

Distribute the terms, we get

=> $7x - 42 = 56$

Add both sides by $42$, we get

=> $7x - 42 +42= 56+42$

Simplifying it further, we get

=> $7x = 98$

Divide both sides by $7$, we get

=> $x = 14$

Hence, the required solution is 14.
