Question

What is the solution for 2(x+4)=12

Answer 1

2(x + 4) = 12
2x + 8 = 12
2x = 12 - 8
2x = 4
x = 4/2
x  = 2.      Answer..........................

Answer 2

Answer:

=> x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:-

$2(x+4)=12$

To find:- The value of the expression:

Here we will use the transposition method.

As we have,

=> $2(x+4)=12$

Now, distribute the terms we get

=> $2x+8=12$

Subtract both sides by $8$, we get

=> $2x+8-8=12-8$

Simplifying it further, we get

=> $2x = 12 - 8$

Subtract the numbers, we get

=> $2x = 4$

Divide both sides, we get

=> $x = 2$

Hence, the required solution is 2.
