Question

Which equation is equivalent to 4(3 - 5x) = 7 - 2(1-4x)?

A. 8x = 5

B. 8x = 17

C. 29x = 5

D. 29x = 17

E. None of the above

Answer 1

none of the above correct

Answer 2

4(3-5x)=7-2(1-4x)
12-20x=7-2+8x
12-20x=5+8x
now take variables at one side & constants at one side as
-20x-8x=5-12
-28x=-7
x=-7/-28=1/4.
therefore,none of the above.
