Answer:
4 - ( 3x - 8 ) = 21
break the bracket first ,it gives : 4 - 3x + 8 = 21
12 - 3x = 21
- 3x = 21 - 12
- 3x = 9
-x = 9/3
-x = 3
X = - 3
[ check if the answer is correct, put -3 instead of X in the above equation ! we get 4 - { 3(-3) - 8 } = 21
4 - { - 9 - 8 } = 21
4 - { - 17 } = 21
break the bracket, minus and minus will multiply and will become plus , so we have 4 + 17 = 21 , hence 21 = 21 ! therefore X = -3
The answer is 106 your welcome :-)

Equation: SOLVE
Solution for 10=4(x-1)-(x-8) equation:
Simplifying
10 = 4(x + -1) + -1(x + -8)
Reorder the terms:
10 = 4(-1 + x) + -1(x + -8)
10 = (-1 * 4 + x * 4) + -1(x + -8)
10 = (-4 + 4x) + -1(x + -8)
Reorder the terms:
10 = -4 + 4x + -1(-8 + x)
10 = -4 + 4x + (-8 * -1 + x * -1)
10 = -4 + 4x + (8 + -1x)
Reorder the terms:
10 = -4 + 8 + 4x + -1x
Combine like terms: -4 + 8 = 4
10 = 4 + 4x + -1x
Combine like terms: 4x + -1x = 3x
10 = 4 + 3x
Solving
10 = 4 + 3x
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-3x' to each side of the equation.
10 + -3x = 4 + 3x + -3x
Combine like terms: 3x + -3x = 0
10 + -3x = 4 + 0
10 + -3x = 4
Add '-10' to each side of the equation.
10 + -10 + -3x = 4 + -10
Combine like terms: 10 + -10 = 0
0 + -3x = 4 + -10
-3x = 4 + -10
Combine like terms: 4 + -10 = -6
-3x = -6
Divide each side by '-3'.
x = 2
Simplifying
x = 2
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>Nothing can be done with the equation because there is no quotient. </em>
If there was, would be able to solve for x.
