Example
Solve 2 ( 3 x + 4 ) =26
Solution
2 (3 x + 4) ¿ 26
6 x +8 ¿ 26
6x ¿ 18
x ¿3
Solve the following equations
i. 3 ( 4 x −9 )=81 ii. 3 ( 2−x )=−14

iii. 2 ( x−5 )=3 (x−6) iv. 3(2−x)=4 (x+ 2)

v. 2 x−7 ( x−3 ) =26 vi. ( 3 x+ 2 )−( 2 x−5 )=0

vii. 5 ( x+ 2 )−3 ( x−1 )=12 viii. 4 ( 3−x ) +3 ( 5 x+2 )=40

ix. 3 ( 1−2 x )=2 ( 5−x )−12 x. 2 x+3 ( x + 4 )=23−(4 x−7)
