Question

2 less than the product of X and for the expression is equal to 10 to create an equation what value could replace X in the expression and make the resulting equation true 4x-2=10

Answer 1

The product of 4 and x is 4x. Two less than product of 4 and x is 4x - 2. The expression is equal to 10. So equation is 4x - 2 = 10.

Simplify the equation for x.

`\begin{gathered} 4x-2=10 \\ 4x=10+2 \\ x=(12)/(4) \\ =3 \end{gathered}`

So value of x which makes the equation true is 3.
