Question

Explain in 2 to 4 complete sentences how to find the value of x
bottom line 8x-4
top line
line in between 60

Answer 1

To find the value of \( x \) given the equation formed by the bottom line \( 8x - 4 \) and the top line equating to \( 60 \), you can set up the equation as follows: \( 8x - 4 = 60 \). Next, solve for \( x \) by first adding \( 4 \) to both sides to get \( 8x = 64 \). Finally, divide both sides by \( 8 \) to find \( x = 8 \).
