• Solve for x.
• 
  `\bf{4x-64=0}`.

`\Large\maltese\star\underline{\textbf{The required answer is below -:}}\star\maltese`

First we need to add 64 to both sides. That way, we will be one step closer to solving this in terms of x.

`\bf{4x-64+64=0+64}` | on the left side the 64's sum to zero

`\bf{4x=0+64}` | the right side is now 64

`\bf{4x=64}` | divide the equation by 4

`\bf{x=16}`

Key to solving this problem -:

When you're solving an equation in terms of x, or any other variable, use inverse operations to solve it. For instance, if something is added to x, use subtraction. If something is subtracted to x, use addition.

If x is multiplied by something, use division. If x is divided by something, use multiplication.

Answer 2

`\tt x = 16`

Explanation:

`\tt 4x-64=0`

Add 64 to both sides.

`\tt 4x - 64 + 64 = 0+ 64`

Simplify.

`\tt 4x = 64`

Divide both sides by 4.

`\tt \cfrac{4x}{4} = \cfrac{64}{4}`

Simplify.

`\tt x = 16`

Done!!!
