Question

Solve the following equations: – 2(x + 3) = 8

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

2(x+3) = 8

2x + 6 = 8

2x = 8 - 6

2x = 2

x = 2/2

x=1 ans

Answer 2

Answer:

⟹ \green{-2 ( x + 3 ) = 8}−2(x+3)=8⟹ \blue{-2x - 6 = 8}−2x−6=8

\implies⟹ \purple{-2x = 8+6}−2x=8+6

\implies⟹ \pink{-2x = 14}−2x=14

\implies⟹ \orange{x = -7}x=−7
