Answer: x=4

Explanation:

Given

2(3x+4)-2x=24

Expand parenthesis

6x+8-2x=24

Combine like terms

4x+8=24

Subtract 8 on both sides

4x+8-8=24-8

4x=16

Divide 4 on both sides

4x/4=16/4

x=4

Hope this helps!! :)

Please let me know if you have any questions

2(3x + 4) - 2x = 24

6x + 8 - 2x = 24


Combine like terms.


6x - 2x = 4x


4x + 8 = 24


Subtract 8 on both sides.


4x = 16

Divide by 4.


x = 4
