Question

9 pts. How do you solve:


x + 25 + 2x +41 = 296

Answer 1

First you would combine the like terms. Combine x + 2x which will lead you to 3x and then add 25 +41 which will equal 66. Then you would subtract 66 from both sides. 3x+66=296 .......3x-66=296. 296-66= 230 and then you’ll divide 230 by 3 which will give you 76.66666
