Answer 1

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

x-4=2(x+8)/5

let's do my favorite strategy: distributive property!

x-4=(2x+16)/5

Now we can simplify.

x-4=(2/5)x+16/5

Let's solve for x!

Subtract 2/5 from both sides

3/5)x=36/5

Now multiply both sides by 5/3, the reciprocal.

You would get 12 as x!
