To find the value of x, you need to isolate/get the variable "x" by itself in the equation:

3x - 2 = 16       Add 2 on both sides

3x - 2 + 2 = 16 + 2

3x = 18         Divide 3 on both sides to get "x" by itself

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

x = 6

PROOF

3x - 2 = 16      Substitute/plug in 6 into "x" since x = 6

3(6) - 2 = 16

18 - 2 = 16

16 = 16

A middle school team scored three field goals worth three points each and two touchdowns worth six points with a single extra po
Bezzdna [24]
The team scored twenty-three points in total. 
This word sum can be worked out as follows:

Three field goals worth three points each is equal to nine points (3 x 3 = 9).
Two touchdowns were scored; each touchdown is worth six points. This equals twelve points (2 x 6 = 12).
Lastly, the team was awarded a bonus point for each touchdown they scored. They scored two touchdowns so they were awarded two extra points (2 x 1 = 2). 
Therefore, we have three subtotals: nine for the field goals; twelve for the touchdowns and two for the bonus points. The equation for this word sum is 9 + 12 + 2 = 23
