∙•❁We are now going to solve your problem Step-By-Step, here we go!❁•

∙•❁Question:

2(x−4)+38=4x

∙•❁Simplify both sides of the equation:

2(x−4)
+38
=4x

∙•❁Let's simplify step-by-step:

2(x−4)
+38
=4x

(2)(x)+(2)(−4)+38=4x(Distribute)

2x+−8+38=4x

(2x)+(−8+38)=4x(Combine Like Terms)

2x+30=4x

∙•❁Subtract 4x from both sides:

2x+304x=4x4x

2x+30=0

∙•❁Subtract 30 from both sides:

2x+30−30=0−30

2x=30

∙•❁Divide both sides by -2:

2x/−2=−30/2

∙•❁Your final answer is:

x=15

∙•❁I hope this helps!❁•

Alright so first I got X=15.
To do this you will need to solve for X.
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
2(x−4)+38=4x
Simplify: 2x+30=4x
Step 2: Subtract 4x from both sides.
2x+304x=4x4x2x+30=0
Step 3: Subtract 30 from both sides.
2x+30−30=0−302x=−30
Step 4: Divide both sides by -2.
2x−2=−30−2x=15
And you get X=15! Hope I helped!
