Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

the value of x=8

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve the x in question

3/4(x - 16) = -2(x -3) + 4

let us get started by rearragging and opening the brackets

3(x-16)/4 = -2(x-3) + 4

(3x - 48)/4 = -2x +6 +4

(3x - 48)/4 = -2x +10

multiply through by 4

we have,

3x -48 = -8x + 40

collect the like terms

3x+8x = 40 + 48

11x = 88

divide both sides by 11

11x/11 = 88/11

x = 8
