Answer:

x = 0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

2(x + 1.25) = 3.5 ← divide both sides by 2

x + 1.25 = 1.75 ( subtract 1.25 from both sides )

x = 0.5

Dividing first:

If we divide both sides by 2, we get

$x+1.25=1.75$

Subtracting 1.25 from both sides:

$x=0.5$

Distributing first:

The left hand side becomes

$2x+2.5=3.5$

Subtract 2.5 from both sides:

$2x=1$

Divide both sides by 2:

$x=0.5$
