Solving equation
Example 1 Solve the equation 3x−4=2.
first step we add 4 both sides then we have
3x−4+4=2+4
3x=6
second step we divide both sides by 3.
3x3=63
x=2
Example 2 Solve the equation 9(x+1)=2(3x+8).
Step 1 we expand each side
9x+9=6x+16
Step 2 subtract 6x from both sides.
9x+9−6x=6x+16−6x
Step 3 subtract 9 from both sides.
3x+9−9=16−9
3x=7
Step 4 divide both sides by 3.
3x3=73
x=73
