Answer:
x = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Distribute parenthesis on both sides of the equation
4x + 4 = 6x - 4 ( subtract 6x from both sides )
- 2x + 4 = - 4 ( subtract 4 from both sides )
- 2x = - 8 ( divide both sides by - 2 )
x = 4
Answer: the answer is 1-3
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x=14
Step-by-step explanation:
2(3x-4)=5x+6
first get rid of the parentheses by multiplying the 2
6x-8 = 5x+6
put like terms on one side of the equation. Start with the 5x, move it to the left side
(6x-8)-5x = (5x+6)-5x
x-8 = 6
Again, put like terms on one side of the equation. Move the 8 to the right side
(x-8)+8 = 6+8
=> x = 14
B)
4x - 3 = 2(x-1)
Start again by getting rid of the parentheses to make it a clean equation... aka distribute the 2:
4x-3 = 2x - 2
Move the like terms to one side of the equation. Start with x.. move 2x to the left:
(4x-3)-2x = (2x-2)-2x
=> 2x-3 = -2
Move the like terms to one side of the equation.Now move the -3 to the other side:
(2x-3)+3 = -2+3
=> 2x=1
Lastly, divide by 2 on both sides to find out what x is:
(2x)/2=1/2
=> x = 1/2
..so no, Charlie was incorrect.
Answer:
2 numbers can have the same absolute value.
