Answer:

136

Explanation:

(x/8) + 23 - 4 = 36

Combine like terms

23 - 4 = 19

(x/8) + 19 = 36

Subtract 19 from each side to isolate the parentheses

(x/8) + 19 = 36

-19 -19

(x/8) + 19 - 19 = x + 19

36 - 19 = 17

(x/8) = 17

Now, multiply each side by 8 to isolate the x.

(x/8) = 17

*8 *8

(x/8) * 8 = x

17 * 8 = 136

136

Hey!

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

Steps to Solve:

(x ÷ 8) + 23 – 4 = 36

Simplify:

(1/8x) + 19 = 36

Subtract 19 to both sides:

(1/8x) + 19 - 19 = 36 - 19

Simplify:

(1/8x) = 17

Multiply 8 to both sides:

(1/8x) * 8 = 17 * 8

Answer:

x = 136 (First Option)

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

Hope This Helped! Good Luck!
