Math Problem Statement

["10x + 9 = 4x - 9","8x - 8 = -4x + 16","2(4x - 3) = 12 + 2x"]

Solution

Let's solve the equations shown in your image:

Question 1:

Solve 10x+9=4x910x + 9 = 4x - 9.

  1. Subtract 4x4x from both sides: 10x4x+9=910x - 4x + 9 = -9 Simplifying: 6x+9=96x + 9 = -9

  2. Subtract 9 from both sides: 6x=996x = -9 - 9 Simplifying: 6x=186x = -18

  3. Divide both sides by 6: x=186=3x = \frac{-18}{6} = -3

So, x=3x = -3.


Question 2:

Solve 8x8=4x+168x - 8 = -4x + 16.

  1. Add 4x4x to both sides: 8x+4x8=168x + 4x - 8 = 16 Simplifying: 12x8=1612x - 8 = 16

  2. Add 8 to both sides: 12x=16+812x = 16 + 8 Simplifying: 12x=2412x = 24

  3. Divide both sides by 12: x=2412=2x = \frac{24}{12} = 2

So, x=2x = 2.


Question 3:

Solve 2(4x3)=12+2x2(4x - 3) = 12 + 2x.
