Question:
Solve:
\(3( 4a + 2) = 8( 3a - 4) + 2\)
A
3
explanation
Solution: \(3( 4a + 2) = 8(3a - 4) + 2\)
Distributing, we have:
\(3(4a) + 3(2) = 8(3a) -8(4) + 2\)
⇒\(12a+ 6=24a-32+2\)
⇒\(12a+6=24a-30\)
Subtracting 12a from both sides and adding 30 to both sides we get:
\(12a+6-12a+30=24a-30-12a+30\)
⇒\(36=12a\)
⇒\(a =3\)
