Answer 2

ANSWER:

Given:

• 8x + 6 + 2x - 4 = 4x + 8

To Find:

• Value of x

Solution:

⇒ 8x + 6 + 2x - 4 = 4x + 8

Rearranging like terms

⇒ 8x + 2x - 4x = 8 - 6 + 4

⇒ 10x - 4x = 12 - 6

⇒ 6x = 6

⇒ x = 6/6

⇒ x = 1

Verification:

Solving LHS and RHS,

⇒ 8x + 6 + 2x - 4 = 4x + 8

⇒ 8(1) + 6 + 2(1) - 4 = 4(1) + 8

⇒ 8 + 6 + 2 - 4 = 4 + 8

⇒ 16 - 4 = 12

⇒ 12 = 12

⇒ LHS = RHS

HENCE VERIFIED!!
