Question

What is the solution to this equation ?

Answer 1

Answer:

x = -20/9

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to distribute this equation 4(4x+1) = 3x-4(6-x)+8. After distributing we get 16x+4 = 3x-24+4x+8. Next we add like terms to get 16x+4 = 7x-16. Now subtract 7x on both sides to get 9x+4 = -16. Now subtract -4 on both sides to get 9x = -20. Now divide by 9 on both sides to get x= -20/9.

Hope that helps! :)
