4(x + 7) = 38
Since there is no operation sign between the 4 and parenthesis, it makes it an automatic multiplication problem.
You would use distributive property to multiply each which should leave your equation looking like this afterwards:
4x + 28 = 38
(4 times x and 4 times 7)
You would then solve it like a two step equation,
1. +28 - 28 = 0
2. 38 - 28 = 10
4x = 10
10 divided by 4 = 2.5
x = 2.5
We can recheck our work by substituting in the value of x.
4(2.5 + 7) = 38
10 + 28 = 38
When we substituted in the value, it gave us the correct inequality.
Therefore,
x = 2.5

The probability of one dice rolling an even number is 1/2 as half the numbers are even. Since the events are independent, and there are 2 dice, we need to square 1/2 to get 1/4, assuming they are both fair dice
Word problem: Today the temperature dropped 13 °F. After this drop, the temperature was 74 °F. What was the original temperature outside before the drop?
Subtraction problem: x °F - 13 °F = 74 °F
Solve: x - 13 = 74
x - 13(+13) = 74 + 13
x = 87 °F
I’m just going off of what I was told in fifth grade, and we were told it was finger nails. Hope this helps!
