Question

Whats does x equal for 6(2x-5) = (x + 4)

Answer 1

Answer:34/11 or 3.09

Step-by-step explanation:

$6(2x-5)=(x+4)$

MULTIPLY  2x-5 BY 6

$6(2x) - 6(5)= 12x-30\\12x-30=x+4$

COLLECT LIKE TERMS

$12x-x = 4+30$

$11x = 34$

DIVIDE BOTH SIDES BY 11

$\frac{11x}{11} =\frac{34}{11}$

THEREFORE x is

$x= 34/11\\ or \\ 3.09$
