Question

-6(x+7)=-4x-2 How many solutions does it have

Answer 1

Answer:

Equation have Unique solution i.e $x=-20$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given Equation:

$-6(x+7)=-4x-2$

Solving the Equation for 'x'.

           $-6(x)-6(7)=-4x-2\\\\-6x-42=-4x-2$

Adding '$4x$'  both sides:

             $-6x+4x-42=-4x+4x-2\\\\-6x+4x-42=-2\\\\-2x-42=-2$

Adding '42' both sides:

               $-2x-42+42=-2+42\\\\-2x=40$

                        $x=\frac{40}{-2} \\\\x=-20$

The equation have Unique solution with the value of $x=-20$
