Question

Solve
$2 (\frac{1 - 4 x}{5}) - 9 = 3 (2 - 4 x)$

Open in App

Solution

$2 (\frac{1 - 4 x}{5}) - 9 = 3 (2 - 4 x)$
$\frac{2 - 8 x - 45}{5} = 3 (2 - 4 x)$
$\frac{- 8 x - 43}{5} = \frac{6 - 12 x}{1}$
$- 8 x - 43 = 30 - 60 x$
$- 8 x + 60 x = 30 + 43$
$52 x = 73$
$x = \frac{73}{52}$
Hence this is the answer.
