Question

Solve 2(x/4 + 8) = 18

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

2(x/4 + 8) = 18

First: Distribute 2 into "x/4 + 8".

2x/4 + 16 = 18

2x/4 = 18 - 16

1x/2 = 2

x/2 • 2 = 2 • 2

x = 4

P.S "•" means to multiply.

Answer 2

Answer:

$\boxed{\boxed{\sf x=4}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\blacksquare \:\:\sf 2\left(\cfrac{x}{4}+8\right)=18$

Divide both sides by 2:

$\mapsto \sf \cfrac{2\left(\cfrac{x}{4}+8\right)}{2}=\cfrac{18}{2}$

$\mapsto \sf \cfrac{x}{4}+8=9$

Subtract 8 from both sides:

$\mapsto \sf \cfrac{x}{4}+8-8=9-8$

$\mapsto \sf \cfrac{x}{4}=1$

Multiply both sides by 4:

$\mapsto \sf \cfrac{4x}{4}=1\times \:4$

$\mapsto \sf x=4$
