What Is The Value Of X That Is The Root Of The Equation 2(X + 6) = 4(X + 2)?

What is the value of x that is the root of the equation 2(x + 6) = 4(x + 2)?

✒️\large{\mathcal{ANSWER}}

======================

  • The root of this First Degree Equation corresponds to x=2.

» We have the following Equation:

2x(x + 6) = 4 \times (x + 2)

» We apply Distributive Ownership on both sides of the quality.

2  \times  x + 2 \times 6 = 4 \times x + 4 \times 2

Solution;

2x +  12 = 4x + 8

» We transfer terms, leaving similar terms on the same side.

2x - 4x = 8 - 1

Solving;

 - 2x =  - 4

Finally, we divide the term of the second member by the first.

x = 2

  • Negative signs result in a positive sign.
