Question

Four times the sum of a number and 2 is 8

Answer 1

4(n+2)=8
4n+8=8
4n=0
n=0

Answer 2

Answer:

0

Step-by-step explanation:

4 * (x + 2) = 8     =    Four times the sum of a number and 2 is 8

4x + 8 = 8

4x = 8 - 8

4x = 0

x = 0 / 4

x = 0

Proof:

4 * (0 + 2) = 8

4 * 2 = 8

8 = 8 ← our equation is corret, x is indeed equal to 0.
