Question

Solve the following equation.

$4(2-x)=9$

Answer 1

Step:Solve the equation.

Given, $4(2-x)=9$

⇒ $8-4x=9$ (Expanding the bracket on L.H.S. )

⇒ $-4x=9-8$ (Transporting $8$ to R.H.S.)

⇒ $-4x=1$

⇒ $\frac{-4x}{-4}=\frac{1}{-4}$ (Dividing both side of equation by $-4$)

⇒ $x=\frac{-1}{4}$

Therefore, $x=\frac{-1}{4}$ is the required solution
