Question

X + 2x + 8 = X = 10 + 6

Answer 1

Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

Base on the given we are..

Solving for x:

Solve:

X + 2x + 8 = X = 10 + 6          {x+2x= 3x}

3x + 8 = 10 + 6                        {10+6=16}

3x + 8-8=16-8                           {16-8=8}

3x = 8                                  {divide both sides by same term}

3x/3 = 8/3

Therefore,

x = 8/3

Decimal form = 2.66666666667

Answer 2

Answer:

x = 8/3

Decimal form: 2.66666666667

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

$x+2x+8=10+6$

Solution:

$\mathrm{Add\:similar\:terms:}\:x+2x=3$

$3x+8=10+6$

$\mathrm{Subtract\:}8\mathrm{\:from\:both\:sides}$

$3x+8-8=16-8$

$\mathrm{Simplify}$

$3x=8$

$\mathrm{Divide\:both\:sides\:by\:}3$

$\frac{3x}{3}=\frac{8}{3}$

$\mathrm{Simplify}$

$x=\frac{8}{3}$

$x=2.66666666667$
