Question

solve for X: x + 2 (1.5x - 6) = 16 (IF YOU CAN PLEASE TELL ME HOW TO SOLVE QUESTIONS LIKE THIS)

Answer 1

4x - 12 = 16) 4x -12 + 12 = 16 + 12) 4x = 28) 4x/4 =28/4) x = 7

Answer 2

Answer:

x=7

Step-by-step explanation:

You multiply the 2 with what is inside of the parenthesis so 3x-12

x+3x-12=16

then you add x +3x =4x

4x-12=16

then you add 12 to both sides

4x=28

then you divide by 4 on both sides

x=7
