Question

If g(x) = 2(x − 4), find the value of x if g(x) = 20. 32 12

Answer 1

14

Explanation:

Answer 2

The value of x is
`14`

Explanation:

we have

`g(x)=2(x-4)` ------> equation A

In this problem we have

`g(x)=20`

Substitute the value of g(x) in the equation A and solve for x

`20=2(x-4)`

Divide by
`2` both sides

`20/2=2(x-4)/2`

`10=(x-4)`

Adds
`4` both sides

`10+4=(x-4)+4`

`x=14`
