Answer:

x = 30

Explanation:

x/2 + 8 = 23

2(x/2 + 8) = 2(23) [Multiply both sides by 2]

x + 16 = 46

x = 30 [Subtract both sides by 16]

Answer:

x = 30

Explanation:

changing sides, changes + to -, - to +, / to *, / to *

x/2 + 8 = 23

x + 16 = 46

x = 46 - 16

x = 30

OR,

x/2 = 23 - 8

x/2 = 15

x = 15 * 2

x = 30
