Question

Given that g(x) = 4x + 6, find the value of x that makes g(x) = 14. Show your work!

Answer 1

x = 2

Explanation:

If g(x) = 14 the equation becomes:

14 = 4x + 6

Place 6 on left hand side (sign changes)

4x = 14-6

4x = 8

Take 4 on right hand side ( 4 will become denominator here)

x = 8/4

x = 2
