Solve the following by transposition method. 4 - x 6 = 7

Given equation: 4 - x 6 = 7 . We solve the given equation by the transposition method. Transposing 6 from LHS to RHS and reversing operation, 4 - x = 7 × 6 = 42 Transposing 4 from LHS to RHS and reversing operation, - x = 42 - 4 = 38 x = - 38 Hence, the value of x is - 38 .

Solve the following by transposition method. x 2 = - x - 2

Given equation, x 2 = - x - 2 . We solve the given equation by the transposition method. Transposing 2 from LHS to RHS and reversing operation, x = 2 × - x - 2 x = - 2 x - 4 Transposing 2 x from RHS to LHS and reversing operation, x + 2 x = - 4 3 x = - 4 Transposing 3 from LHS to RHS and reversing operation, x = - 4 3 Hence, the value of x is - 4 3 .
