Answer:
Three times a number x increase by four is equal to five times the number x. Equation x – 2 = 0 can be used to find the value of x.
Solution:
Given that three a number x is increased by 4
We need to find the equation.
Three times of number x means 3x
Increase by 4 means addition of 4 = 3x + 4
Lets say 3x +4 is expression 1
Five times of x is 5x . let it be expression 2.
Given that expression 1 and expression 2 are equal.
So 3x + 4 = 5x
5x – 3x + 4 = 0
2x – 4 = 0
x – 2 = 0
Hence equation x – 2 = 0 can be used to find the value of x.
