Question

Simplify 7x-4(x-8)=56

Answer 1

Answer:

x=16

Step-by-step explanation:

7x-4(x-8)=56

Distribute -4 to x and 8

7x-4x+8=56

Combine 7x and -4x

3x+8=56

Subtract 8 on each side

3x=48

Divide both sides by 3

x=16

Answer 2

Answer:

$x=8$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given Equation:

         $7x-4(x-8)=56$

         $7x-4(x)-4(-8)=56$

            $7x-4x+32=56$

Subtracting '32' both side:

             $7x-4x+32-32=56-32\\\\7x-4x=24$

                $3x=24$

Dividing by '3' both the sides:

                 $x=\frac{24}{3}$

                 $x=8$

The Solution for the Equation is $x=8$
