Question

2(4x-3)-8=4+2x please solve this linear equation I need help

Answer 1

Answer:

X=3

Step-by-step explanation:

2(4x−3)−8=4+2x

2)(4x)+(2)(−3)+−8=4+2x

8x+−6+−8=4+2x

8x−14=2x+4

8x−14−2x=2x+4−2x

6x−14=4

6x−14+14=4+14

6x=18

x=3

Answer 2

Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Perform the indicated multiplication.  We get  

8x - 6 - 8 = 4 + 2x

Combining the x terms results in:

6x - 14 = 4

Isolate x by adding 14 to both sides:

6x = 18

Find x by dividing both sides by 6:

x = 18/6 = 3

x = 3
