Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

3(x + 4) + 2 = 2 + 5(x – 4)

Step 1: distributive property

3(x + 4) + 2 = 2 + 5(x – 4)

3x + 12 + 2 = 2 + 5x - 20

Step 2: collect like terms

3x + 12 + 2 = 2 + 5x - 20

3x + 14 = 5x - 18

Step 3: Addition property of equality

3x + 14 = 5x - 18

3x + 14 + 18 = 5x - 18 + 18

3x + 32 = 5x

Step 4: subtraction property of equality

3x + 32 - 3x = 5x - 3x

32 = 2x

Step 5: division property of equality

32 = 2x

32/2 = 2x/2

16 = x

x = 16
