Question

1/2(4x+10)=2 i need to get x

Answer 1

First you need to distribute the 1/2 by the numbers in the parentheses
1/2•4x and 1/2•10 which equals
2x+5=10

next, you will need to get the 2x by itself so you would do
2x+5=10
-5=-5
2x=5

finally, you divide the 2 by the 5 so you can get the x by itself
2x divided by 5

the answer is: x=2.5
