Question

In the following equations, verify if the given value is a solution of the equation: `(3x - 1)/(4) + (3)/(4)` = 2; x = 2

Answer 1

`(3x - 1)/(4) + (3)/(4)` = 2; x = 2

Simplifying, we get:

⇒ `(3x - 1 + 3)/(4)` = 2
⇒ 3x + 2 = 8
⇒ 3x = 6
⇒ x = 2

Thus, x = 2 is a solution of the equation `(3x - 1)/(4) + (3)/(4)` = 2; x = 2.
