Question

the mean of x+8,x+6,x+4,x+2,and x is 24. find the value of x​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

x + x + 2 + x + 4 + x + 6 + x+8 / 5 = 24

5x + 20 = 5*24

5(x + 4) = 5 * 24

cancel 5 from both sides

x + 4 = 24

x = 20

Answer 2

Answer:

$\frac{(x + 8) + (x + 6) + (x + 4) + (x + 2) + (x)}{5} = 24 \\ = > \frac{5x + 20}{5} = 24 \\ = > 5x + 20 = 120 \\ = > 5x = 100 \\ = > x = 20$

Hope you get it
