Question

Check whether the LHS and RHS are equal or not for the given value of $x$:

• 8x-3=4x+5 for x=2

Answer 1

Step 1: Find L.H.S

LHS

$$\begin{gathered} 8x-3 \\ =(8\times 2)-3 \\ =16-3 \\ =13 \end{gathered}$$

Step 2:Find the value of R.H.S

RHS

$$\begin{gathered} 4x+5 \\ =(4\times 2)+5 \\ =8+5 \\ =13 \end{gathered}$$

Hence LHS=RHS(verified)
