What does x equal 2(x-3)=14

Mathematics
1 answer:
Leno4ka [110]3 years ago
3 0

Answer: x = 10

Explanation: To solve this equation for <em>x</em>, we start by distributing the 2 through the parentheses on the left side.

So we have 2 times <em>x</em> which is 2x and 2 times -3 which is -6. So our equation now reads 2x - 6 = 14.

Solving from here,

we add 6 to both sides of the equation and we have 2x = 20 and dividing both sides by 2, we find that <em>x = 10</em>.

We can check our answer by substituting a 10 back in for <em>x</em> in the original equation and we have 2(10 - 3) = 14.

10 - 3 is 7 so we have 2(7) = 14 or 14 = 14 which is a true statement so our answer checks.
