Answer 1

Answer:

$\large \green{Solution}$☟︎︎︎

Simplifying

2(x + 4) = 16

Reorder the terms:

2(4 + x) = 16

(4 * 2 + x * 2) = 16

(8 + 2x) = 16

Solving

8 + 2x = 16

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-8' to each side of the equation.

8 + -8 + 2x = 16 + -8

Combine like terms: 8 + -8 = 0

0 + 2x = 16 + -8

2x = 16 + -8

Combine like terms: 16 + -8 = 8

2x = 8

Divide each side by '2'.

x = 4
