Answer: x = 2/23

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]46x-23x=2[/tex]

[tex]\mathrm{Add\:like\:terms:}\:46x-23x=23x[/tex]

[tex]23x=2[/tex]

[tex]\mathrm{Divide\:both\:sides\:by\:}23[/tex]

[tex]\frac{23x}{23}=\frac{2}{23}[/tex]

[tex]$Simplify[/tex]

[tex]\bold{x=\frac{2}{23}}[/tex]

Answer:

  • x = 2/23

Step-by-step explanation:

Inthis question we are given with one equation that is 46x - 23x = 2 and we have asked to find the value of x or solve for x .

So , from here we are solving :

[tex] \longmapsto \: 46x - 23x = 2[/tex]

Step 1 : Taking 23x common at left hand side :

[tex] \longmapsto \: 23x(2 - 1) = 2[/tex]

Step 2 : Subtracting 1 with 2 :

[tex] \longmapsto \:23x = 2[/tex]

Step 3 : Transposing 23 to right hand side :

[tex] \longmapsto \: \red{ \boxed{x = \frac{2}{23} }}[/tex]

  • Therefore, value of x is 2/23

Verifying the answer :

We are verifying our answer by substituting the value of x in the given equation .

[tex] \longmapsto \: 46(\frac{2}{23}) - 23( \frac{2}{23} ) = 2[/tex]

Now , calculating :

[tex] \longmapsto \: \cancel{46}(\frac{2}{ \cancel{23}}) - \cancel{23}( \frac{2}{ \cancel{23}} ) = 2[/tex]

[tex] \longmapsto \: 4 - 2 = 2[/tex]

[tex] \longmapsto \: 2 = 2[/tex]

[tex] \longmapsto \: L.H.S = R.H.S[/tex]

[tex] \longmapsto \: Hence, \: Verified . \: [/tex]

  • Therefore , our value for x is correct .
