Question

What is the value of X in the equation 8X - 2y=48,when y=4

Answer 1

X=7

Explanation:

8x-2y=48

8x-2(4)=48

8x-8=48

8(7)-8=48

56-8=48

Answer 2

x = 7.

Explanation:

The given equation is

`8x-2y=48`

We need to find the value of x, when y=4.

Substitute y=4 in the given equation and then solve for x.

`8x-2(4)=48`

`8x-8=48`

Add 8 on both sides.

`8x=48+8`

`8x=56`

Divide both sides by 8.

`x=(56)/(8)`

`x=7`

Therefore, the value of x is 7, when y=4.
