Question

1/2(4x+16)=20 what is the value of x

Answer 1

×=7.5

Step-by-step explanation:

2x+5=20

2x+5=20

-5=20

=15

2x=15

÷2

Answer 2

The value of x=6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

`(1)/(2)(4x+16) =20`

Now we will do cross multiply on both sides of the equation

`1*(4x+16)=20*2`

(4x+16)=40

Now we will solve the above equation

`4x+16-40=0`

`4x-24=0`

`4x=24`

`x=(24)/(4)`

`x=6`

Hence the required value which satisfy the given equation of the question is x=6.
