What is the value of X?

Simplify:
8x - 10 - 4x =   - 12(12x - 20)


Simplify both sides:
8x - 10 - 4x =  - 12(12x -20)

8x +  - 10 +  - 4x  = (- 12)(12x) + ( -12)(- 20)
(Distribute:)
8x +  - 10 +  - 4x = 144x 240

(8x +  - 4x) + ( -10) =  - 144x + 240 (Combine Like Terms:)

4x +  - 10 =  - 144x + 240

4x - 10 =  - 144x + 240

Add - 144x to both sides:

4x - 10 +  144x =   - 144x + 240 + 144x

148x - 10 = 240


Add 10 to both sides:

148x - 10 + 10 = 240 + 10

148x = 250

Divide both sides by 148

148x/148 = 250/148

x = 125/74


Answer:  x = 125/74 (Decimal: 1.689189)



Hope that helps!!!!

Solve for x: 3|x-3| 2=14<br> a. No solution<br> b. x=-1,x=8.3<br> c. x=0,x=7<br> d. x=-1,x=7
VMariaS [17]
I am looking  on the answers, and there is only one case, when a or b or c or d pass:   3|x-3| + 2 = 14.  So I assume, that before two is plus. Then:

3|x-3|+2=14    |minus 2
3|x-3|=12        |divide 3
|x-3|=4 

From absolute value definition you've got two ways:

x-3=4     or     x-3=-4
x=7        or     x=-1

And  answer d) passes
