Question

The equation below has one solution.

9x-10 = 3x+2
What is the solution to the equation?
1) -2
2)-1
3) 1
4) 2

Answer 1

x=2

Explanation:

Given

9x - 10 = 3x + 2 ( subtract 3x from both sides )

6x - 10 = 2 ( add 10 to both sides )

6x = 12 ( divide both sides by 6 )

x = 2

Answer 2

x = 2

Explanation:

Given

9x - 10 = 3x + 2 ( subtract 3x from both sides )

6x - 10 = 2 ( add 10 to both sides )

6x = 12 ( divide both sides by 6 )

x = 2
