3(x+8)=42.

We move all terms to the left:

3(x+8)-(42.)=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

3(x+8)-42=0

We multiply parentheses

3x+24-42=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

3x-18=0

We move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right

3x=18

x=18/3

x=6

<h2>Answer: x=6</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

3(x+8)=42

(3)(x)+(3)(8)=42 (Distribute)

3x+24=42

Step 2: Subtract 24 from both sides.

3x+24−24 = 42−24

3x=18

Step 3: Divide both sides by 3.

\frac{3x}{3} =\frac{18}{3}

Therefore, the correct answer is x=6
