What is 2(x -3) = 7 (x+24)

Answer:
x=34.8
Step-by-step explanation:
First thing you gotta do is distribute the parenthesis.
2(x-3)= 2x-6
7(x+24)=7x+168
2x-6=7x+168
Next, we simplify our equation and subtract 6 from both sides, along with subtracting 7x from both sides.
2x-6=7x+168
+6 +6
2x=7x+174
-7x -7x
-5x=174
Our final step is to divide both sides by -5.
x=34.8

The notation in its current form isn't entirely clear.
Did you mean to write ? The 4 isn't in the square root.
If so, then the expression is in simplest form because we cannot simplify any further (note how 10 doesn't have any perfect square factors other than 1).
Also, the 3/4 portion is fully reduced already.

Or,
Did you mean to write ? This time the 4 is inside the square root.
If so, then we can simplify like this
