Question

Is x = 1 the solution to 2(x + 13) = 28
(show me why! Or maybe why not)

Answer 1

Yes, x=1 is the solution

Explanation:

You would divide both sides of the equation by 2, that leaves you with x+13=14

Next you would move your constant, which in this case is 13, so x=14-13

Then you would subtract the numbers by each other so 14-13 equals one which makes x=1
