Solve the following equation.

3(5x+4)−20=13x−4

A. -2
B. 2
C. 8
D. 4

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi!

3(5x+4)−20=13x−4                            

15x+12-20=13x-4                                         Distribute the 3 to the 5x and 4

15x-8=13x-4

2x-8=-4                                                        Subtract 13x from both sides

2x=4                                                             Add 8 to both sides

x=2                                                               Divide both sides by 2

So 2 is the answer :)

step-by-step explanation:

there is vertical asymptote at x = 2 and x = 0

vertical asymptote occurs at the points where the denominator is 0. so we can say that

x = 2 occurs when there is a factor (x-2) in the denominator, and

x = 0 occurs when there is a factor "x" in the denominator

thus, the denominator of the equation would have "x * (x-2)", this is option c only. that's the correct answer.
