Answer:
[tex]x=2[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
We have been given an equation [tex]4x+8=16[/tex]. we are asked to find the value of x that makes our given equation true.
Let us solve our given equation for x using opposite operations.
Subtract 8 from both sides:
[tex]4x+8-8=16-8[/tex]
[tex]4x=8[/tex]
Divide both sides by 4:
[tex]\frac{4x}{4}=\frac{8}{4}[/tex]
[tex]x=2[/tex]
Therefore, [tex]x=2[/tex] is the solution for our given equation.
Let us verify our answer:
[tex]4x+8=16[/tex]
[tex]4(2)+8=16[/tex]
[tex]8+8=16[/tex]
[tex]16=16[/tex]
Both sides are equal. Hence proven [tex]x=2[/tex] is solution for our given equation.
