Question

solve the following equations:5x-12=2x-6​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

5x-12=2x-6

5x-2x=-6+12

3x=6

x=2

Answer 2

Solution:-

5x-12= 2x-6

⟹5x-2x= -6+12

⟹3x= 6

$\bold{ \implies \: x = \frac{6}{3} }$

⟹x= 2

Verification:-

Putting the value of x= 2,in the given equation:-

L.H.S= (5×2)-12= 10-12= -2

R.H.S=(2×2)-6= 4-6= -2

Therefore, L.H.S= R.H.S
