Question

What is 8(4 - x) = 7x + 2

Answer 1

Answer: x = 2

Explanation:

• 8(4 - x) = 7x + 2

• = 8(-x + 4) = 7x + 2

• = -8x + 32 = 7x + 2

• = -8x + 32 - 32 = 7x + 2 - 32

• = -8x = 7x + 2 - 32

• = -8x = 7x = 30

• = -8x - 7x = 7x + 30 - 7x
• = -15x = 7x - 30 - 7x
• = -15x = 30
• -15x/-15 = -30/-15
• = x = -30/-15
• = x = 2

And thats how you get the answer!
