Question

3x+(3x+60) =180 then find value of x

Answer 1

Answer:

$\boxed{ \bold{ \huge{ \boxed{ \bold{x = 20}}}}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\sf{3x + (3x + 60) = 180}$

When there is a ( + ) sign in front of an expression in a parentheses , there is no need to change the sign of each term in the expression. That means, the expression remains the same. Just, remove the parentheses.

⇒$\sf{3x + 3x + 60 = 180}$

Collect like terms

⇒$\sf{6x + 60 = 180}$

Move 60 to right hand side and change it's sign

⇒$\sf{6x = 180 - 60}$

Subtract 60 from 180

⇒$\sf{6x = 120}$

Divide both sides of the equation by 6

⇒$\sf{ \frac{6x}{6} = \frac{120}{6} }$

Calculate

⇒$\sf{x = 20}$
