Question

Solve for x. 4(x + 2) = 48 x = 6 1/2 x = 7 1/2 x = 10 x = 14

Answer 1

[ Answer ]

`\boxed{\bold{X \ = \ 10}}`

[ Explanation ]

• Solve For X: 4(x + 2) = 48

--------------------------------

• Divide Both Sides By 4

`\bold{(4(x \ + \ 2))/(4)}` =
`\bold{(48)/(4)}`

• Simplify

X + 2 = 12

• Subtract 2 From Both Sides

X + 2 - 2 = 12 - 2

• Simplify

X = 10

`\boxed{\bold{[] \ Eclipsed \ []}}`

Answer 2

Explanation:

4(x + 2) = 48

4x+8=48

4x=40

x=10
