Question

1) The variable x represents a value in the set ( 4, 6, 7, 8). Which value of x makes 2 (x-4) +3 =7?

Answer 1

Answer:

x=6

Step-by-step explanation:

2 (x-4) +3 =7

Subtract 3 from each side

2 (x-4) +3-3 =7-3

2(x-4) =4

Divide each side by 2

2(x-4)/2 = 4/2

x-4 = 2

Add 4 to each side

x-4+4 =2+4

x=6
