1 x 24
2 x 12
3x8
4x6
Four different ways. Think of the factors of 24. Hint- only use the same number once!
This is because simplifying the equation before solving it will lead you to the answer at a much faster rate. For example, in the given equation, the long way would be to distribute 2 to (x+3). Then, you transpose them and combine like terms. Until you get to x + 3 = 8. But if you simplify it first, you will see that it is straightforward. It will lead you to the answer right away which is x + 3 = 8. It saves you from the hassle of doing more algebra :)
Answer:
m=1
Step-by-step explanation:
step 1: 8(m + 2) = 3(12 - 4m) remove the parentheses
step 2: 8 m + 2 = 3 12 - 4m move the terms
step 3: 8m+ 12m= 36 - 16 collect like terms and calulate
step 4: 20m=20 divide both sides
solution: m=1
10(x2) = 70(x)
10x2 - 70x
10x = 70
