Answer:
7=x
Step-by-step explanation:
6(x-3)=8(x-4)
Distribute
6x -18 = 8x-32
Subtract 6x from each side
6x-18 -6x = 8x-32-8x
-18 = 2x-32
Add 32 to each side
-18+32 = 2x-32+32
14 = 2x
Divide by 2
14/2 =2x/2
7=x

[tex]\sf \bf {\boxed {\mathbb {STEP-BY-STEP\:\:EXPLANATION:}}}[/tex]
[tex]➺\:6(x - 3) = 8(x - 4)[/tex]
[tex]➺ \: 6x - 18 = 8x - 32[/tex]
[tex]➺ \: 6x - 8x = - 32 + 18[/tex]
[tex]➺ \: - 2x = - 14[/tex]
[tex]➺ \: x = \frac{ - 14}{ - 2} [/tex]
[tex]➺ \: x = 7[/tex]
Therefore, the value of [tex]x[/tex] is 7.
[tex]\sf \bf {\boxed {\mathbb {TO\:VERIFY :}}}[/tex]
[tex]➺ \: 6(x - 3) = 8(x - 4)[/tex]
[tex]➺ \: 6(7 - 3) = 8(7 - 4)[/tex]
[tex]➺ \: 6 \times 4 = 8 \times 3[/tex]
[tex]➺ \: 24 = 24[/tex]
➺ L. H. S. = R. H. S.
Hence verified.
