Question

Can someone help. fill space

Answer 1

Given that:

`\bold{-4+3x=20}`

To find:

• The value of x.

Solution:

We'll have to make x the subject.

First, write the equation as it is.

`\bold{-4+3x=20}`

We'll have to cancel -4, To cancel -4 we'll have to +4 to 20 because the opposite of Subtraction is addition.

`\bold{3x=24}`

Now, we'll have to cancel 3, To cancel 3 we'll have to divide 24 by 3, because the opposite of multiplication is division.

`\bold{(3x)/(3)=(24)/(3)}`

Workout

`\large\boxed{\bold{x=8}}`

To check your answer is correct:

`\bold{-4+(3×8)=20}`

Therefore, the value of x is 8.
