Question

Solve this :-

2(x + 8) + 2x = 20​

Answer 1

Given:-

• 2(x + 8) + 2x = 20

⠀

To find:-

• Value of x.

⠀

Solution:-

→ 2(x + 8) + 2x = 20

→ 2x + 16 + 2x = 20

→ 2x + 2x = 20 - 16

→ 4x = 4

→ x = 4/4

→ x = 1

⠀

Hence,

• the value of x is 1.

⠀

Verification:-

• Putting the value.

⠀

→ 2(x + 8) + 2x = 20

→ 2(1 + 8) + 2(1) = 20

→ 2(9) + 2(1) = 20

→ 18 + 2 = 20

→ 20 = 20
