Question

Solve the equation 4(x+2)-17=35

Answer 1

Hey there! 

If we're solving for "x" then follow these steps

$Add$ $9$ to each of your sides

Like: $4x - 9 + 9 \\ = 35 +9$

That gives us: $4x = 44$

$Divide$ by the number $4$ on each of your sides

Like: $\frac{4x}{4} = \frac{44}{4}$

We cancel: $\frac{4x}{4}$ because fives us a $1$

We keep:$\frac{44}{4}$ because it gives us a $11$ (our answer)

$Answer: x = 11$

Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day

Answer 2

So first

4x+8-17=35
So make the equation equal 0
4x +8 -17 -35=0

Combine like terms

4x-44= 0

Add 44 to 0

4x =44

Divide by 4

X = 11

Good luck :D
