Question

Solve the Linear equation (x-2)(3)=(2x+1)(4) ​

Answer 1

Answer:

x = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

(x-2)(3) = (2x+1)(4)

First multiply the brackets, i.e.

x*3 - 2*3 = 4*2x + 1*4

3x - 6 = 8x + 4

Now, taking variables on 1 side and constant on other side,

we have

5x = -10

dividing both side by 5,

we get

5x/5 = -10 / 5

x = -2

Mark my answer as brainliest.

Answer 2

$3(x - 2) = 4(2x + 1)$

$3x - 6 = 8x + 4$

$3x - 8x = 4 + 6$

$- 5x = 10$

$x = \frac{ - 10}{5}$

$x = - 2$
