Question

(02.01 lc) solve: the quantity 2 x minus 10 divided by 4 = 3x

Answer 1

We have to solve the expression

"2x minus 10 divided by 4 = 3x"

(2x-10) divided by 4 = 3x

`(2x-10)/(4) = 3x`

`2x-10 = 12x`

`-10 = 12x - 2x`

`-10 = 10x`

`x = -1`

So, the value of 'x' in the given equation is '-1'.
