Answer:

the value of the variable x is 16

Step-by-step explanation:

given \: expression \\  \frac{5}{8}x =  \frac{1}{2} x + 2 \\ substract \: \frac{1}{2} x from \: both \: sides \\ \frac{5}{8}x  - \frac{1}{2} x = \frac{1}{2} x  - \frac{1}{2} x  + 2 - \frac{1}{2} x  \\ factor \: out \: common \: x \\ x( \frac{5}{8}  -  \frac{1}{2} ) =  \frac{1}{8}  \\ simplify \\ \frac{1}{2} x  + 2 - \frac{1}{2} x \:  \frac{1}{2} x -  \frac{1}{2} x = 0 = 2 \\  \frac{1}{8} x = 2 \\ multiply \: both \: sides \: by \: 8 \\ 8. \frac{1}{8} x = 2.8 \\ simplify \\ x = 16.
