Question

4(2x+8)=10x+2-2x+30 what is x?

Answer 1

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

4(2x+8)=10x+2−2x+30

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

4(2x+8)=10x+2−2x+30

(4)(2x)+(4)(8)=10x+2+−2x+30(Distribute)

8x+32=10x+2+−2x+30

8x+32=(10x+−2x)+(2+30)(Combine Like Terms)

8x+32=8x+32

8x+32=8x+32

Step 2: Subtract 8x from both sides.

8x+32−8x=8x+32−8x

32=32

Step 3: Subtract 32 from both sides.

32−32=32−32

0=0
