Question

For which value of x is the equation 4x + 24 = 8x + 2x true?

Answer 1

Answer: d.) 4

Explanation:

4x + 24 = 8x+ 2x

4x + 24 = 10x

4x - 10x = -24

-6x = -24 --> x=4

Answer 2

`x=4`

Explanation:

`4x+24=8x+2x`

We'll combine the
`8x` and the
`2x` on the right side.

`4x+24=10x`

Now, we'll subtract
`4x` from both sides.

`24=6x`

Divide both sides by
`6`.

`4=x`

Ta-da!
