Answer:
1) x = 3/2 2) x = 6 3) x = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
For Number 1:
4(x+8)−4=34
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
4(x+8)−4=34
(4)(x)+(4)(8)+−4=34(Distribute)
4x+32+−4=34
(4x)+(32+−4)=34(Combine Like Terms)
4x+28=34
Step 2: Subtract 28 from both sides.
4x=6
Step 3: Divide both sides by 4.
4x/4 = 6/4
x = 3/2
For Number 2:
2/3(9+x)=−5(4−x)
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
6 + 2/3x = −20+5x
Step 2: Subtract 5x from both sides.
−13
/3
x+6=−20
Step 3: Subtract 6 from both sides.
-13/3x = -26
Step 4: Multiply both sides by 3/(-13)
x = 6
For Number 3:
−3(x+4)+15=6−4x
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
−3(x+4)+15=6−4x
(−3)(x)+(−3)(4)+15=6+−4x(Distribute)
−3x+−12+15=6+−4x
(−3x)+(−12+15)=−4x+6(Combine Like Terms)
−3x+3=−4x+6
−3x+3=−4x+6
Step 2: Add 4x to both sides.
−3x+3+4x=−4x+6+4x
x+3=6
Step 3: Subtract 3 from both sides.
x+3−3=6−3
x = 3
