Question

Solve for x: (2x − 8) = 4. 2 6 10

Answer 1

The answer is 2, because, 2×2=4 so 2(2)-8= 4-8=4 (if you are dealing with negatives then it would be -4)

Answer 2

Just do
`Parentheses \\ Equation\\ Multiplication \\ Division\\ Addition\\ Subtraction\\`

We're doing
and
`subtraction` (and somewhat
`multiplication` )

So, let's work this problem out:


`Problem: (2x - 8) = 4`

Let's add the number
`8` on your sides, like:
`2x - 8 + 8 \\ = 4+ 8`

Which gives us:
`2x = 12`


`2` goes into the both of those numbers so let's divide both sides by
`2`


`(2x)/(2) = 1x \\ (12)/(2) = 6`


`(6)/(1x) = (6)/(x)`

Finally, our answer:
`x = 6`
