Answer:

x = 11.3125

Explanation:

0.25 + 13 = 4(x - 8)

Distribute the 4 across the parentheses.

0.25 + 13 = 4x - 32

Combine the constants on the left side of the equal sign.

13.25 = 4x - 32

Combine all the constants by adding 32 to both sides.

45.25 = 4x

Divide by 4 to isolate the x.

45.25/4 = x

11.3125 = x

Check.

0.25 + 13 = 4(x - 8)

0.25 + 13 = 4(11.3125 - 8)

0.25 + 13 = 4(3.3125)

0.25 + 13 = 13.25

13.25 = 13.25
