Question

Find the solution to the following equation: 2(2x - 7) = 14

x = 14

x = 7

x = 1

x = 0

Answer 1

b) x = 7

Explanation:

Given equation,

→ 2(2x - 7) = 14

Now the value of x will be,

→ 2(2x - 7) = 14

→ 4x - 14 = 14

→ 4x = 14 + 14

→ x = 28/4

→ [ x = 7 ]

Hence, the value of x is 7.

Answer 2

x=7

Explanation:

2(2x - 7) = 14

Solve for x

Divide each side by 2

2/2(2x - 7) = 14/2

2x-7 = 7

Add 7 to each side

2x-7+7 = 7+7

2x = 14

Divide each side by 2

2x/2 = 14/2

x = 7
