Answer: X=4
Explanation:
Pulling out like terms :
1.1 Pull out like factors :
2x - 8 = 2 • (x - 4)
Equation at the end of step 1 :
Step 2 :
Equations which are never true :
2.1 Solve : 2 = 0
This equation has no solution.
A a non-zero constant never equals zero.
Solving a Single Variable Equation :
2.2 Solve : x-4 = 0
Add 4 to both sides of the equation :
x = 4
One solution was found :
x = 4
