Question

For 3(x-2) = 30+x - 2 - x + 2, does x=12?

Answer 1

Answer: True

Explanation:

Substitute x=12 into the equation, if left side = right side, x = 12

3 (x - 2) = 30 + x - 2 - x + 2

3 ((12)-2) = 30 + (12) - 2 - (12) + 2

3 (10) = 30 - 2 + 2

30 = 30

Left side = Right side

Therefore, x = 12
