Question

4(2x-3)+8(x-4)=2(2x+6) help plzzz

Answer 1

`x=(14)/(3)`

Explanation:

`4(2x-3)+8(x-4)=2(2x+6)`

Expand parentheses:

`8x-12+8x-32=4x+12`

Combine similar terms:

`16x-44=4x+12`

Subtract 4x and add 44 to both sides:

`12x=56`

Divide both sides by 12:

`x=(14)/(3)`

Hope this helps!

Answer 2

x = 14/3

Explanation:

4(2x-3)+8(x-4)=2(2x+6)

Distribute

8x -12 +8x - 32 = 4x +12

Combine like terms

16x -44 = 4x+12

Subtract 4x

16x-4x -44 = 4x+12-4x

12x -44 =12

Add 44 to each side

12x-44+44 = 12+44

12x = 56

Divide each side by 12

12x/12 = 56/12

x = 14/3
