Question

What is the solution to this equation?
4(4x + 1) = 3x - 4(6 - x) + 8 A. x= -12/9 B. x= -20/9 C. x= -12/23 D. x= -20/23

Answer 1

Answer:

The choice B.

$x = - \frac{20}{9}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$4(4x + 1) = 3x - 4(6 - x) + 8 \\ 16x + 4 = 3x - 24 + 4x + 8 \\ 16x - 3x - 4x = - 24 + 8 - 4 \\ 9x = - 20 \\ \\ x = - \frac{20}{9}$
