Question 131423
Solve:
{{{6(x+4) = 3-2!}}} Here, I am assuming that you meant to write 2 factorial, right?
{{{6x+24 = 3-2}}} ...and, since 2! = 2*1 = 2, you get:
{{{6x+24 = 1}}} Subtract 24 from both sides.
{{{6x = -23}}} Divide both sides by 6:
{{{x = -23/6}}}
Check:
{{{6(x+4) = 3-2!}}} Substitute {{{x = -23/6}}}
{{{6((-23/6)+4) = 1}}}
{{{6((-23/6)+24/6) = 1}}}
{{{6(1/6) = 1}}}
{{{1 = 1}}}
