Answer:

<h3>x=2</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

2(4x + 1) = 18

Reorder the terms:

2(1 + 4x) = 18

(1 * 2 + 4x * 2) = 18

(2 + 8x) = 18

Solving

2 + 8x = 18

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-2' to each side of the equation.

2 + -2 + 8x = 18 + -2

Combine like terms: 2 + -2 = 0

0 + 8x = 18 + -2

8x = 18 + -2

Combine like terms: 18 + -2 = 16

8x = 16

Divide each side by '8'.

x = 2

Simplifying

x = 2
