Question

2x+2+2x-17=180 what's x?

Answer 1

Answer:

x=48.75

Step-by-step explanation:

2x+2+2x-17=180(Group like terms)

2x+2x+2-17=180

4x-15=180(Add 15 on both sides)

4x-15+15=180+15

4x=195(Divide both sides by 4 to find the value of x)

x=48.75

Answer 2

Answer:

x= 48.75

Step-by-step explanation:

Add like terms

2x+2x and

2-17

4x-15=180

Now subtract -15 to both sides get x by itself

4x-15+15=180+15

4x=195

Now divide by four to each side to get x by itself again

4x/4 = 195/4

x=48.75
