Question

put the equation balancing moves in order so that they match what's what was done in each step to solve the equation.

Answer 1

Given equation is:

`2(-3x+4)=5x+2`

In order to balance the equation, we do the same operation on both sides of the equation.

we get,

`-6x+8=5x+2`

Adding 6x on both sides we get,

`\begin{gathered} -6x+8+6x=5x+2+6x \\ 8=11x+2 \end{gathered}`

Subtracting 2 on both sides we get,

`6=11x`

Dividing by 11 on both sides, we get

`x=(6)/(11)`

The value of x is 6/11.
