Question

Solve 4(2x - 1) - 3 = 9(x - 4).
-29
32
13
29

Answer 1

Use Distributive Property first.
\(\huge{8x-4-3=9x-32}\)
Combine like terms
\(\huge{8x-7=9x-32}\)
Can you solve the rest on your own?

Answer 2

x = 29

Answer 3

there you go

Answer 4

its easy

Answer 5

Direct answers are AGAINST the CoC. Please review the CoC again. Thank you.

Answer 6

if you don't feel like going through all of that work all you have to do is substitue each number into the x values then you have to see if each side equals each other. if they do BINGO!!

Answer 7

Alright - step by step :D

4(2x - 1) - 3 = 9(x - 4).

Distributive Property:
4(2x - 1) - 3 = 9(x - 4).
(4 * 2x) - (4 *1) - 3= (9 * x) - (9 *5)

8x - 4 - 3 = 9x - 4

Simplify:
8x - 4 - 3 = 9x - 4
(-4 -3)
8x -7 = 9x - 4

Combine Like terms:
8x -7 = 9x - 4
-8x -8x

-7 = x - 4
+4 +4

x = -3

Answer 8

Plug in -3 and you'll get your answer :D

Answer 11

@arabpride
Can you help me with 1 more?
If so, here

Solve 4(x + 1) = 4x + 10.

All real numbers
No solution

Answer 12

All right same steps :D

4(x + 1) = 4x + 10

Distributive Property:
4(x + 1) = 4x + 10
(4 * x) + (4 * 1) = 4x + 10

4x + 4 = 4x + 10

Combine like terms
4x + 1 = 4x + 10
-1 -1

4x = 4x + 9
-4x -4x

0 ≠ 9

not sure - either 0 or no solution~
