Question

Solve this equation problem 8-4x =2

Answer 1

$\rm \to8 = 2 + 4x$

$\rm \to8 - 2= 4x$

$\rm \to6= 4x$

$\rm \to 4x = 6$

$\rm \to x = \dfrac{6}{4}$

$\rm \to x = \cancel \dfrac{6}{4}$

$\rm \to x = \dfrac{3}{2}$

Answer 2

Answer:

The answer is 3/2.

Step-by-step explanation:

8-4x=2

1. Subtract 8 from each side. 8-8-4x=2-8

2. Then you get -4x= -6

3. Next you divide each side by -4.  -4x/-4 = -6/-4

Lastly, you get your answer as x= 3/2
