Answer:

  • x = 10
  • x = 17.2

Solution of Problem 1:

  • 2x + 8 = 28
  • => 2x = 28 - 8
  • => 2x = 20
  • => x = 10

Solution of Problem 2:

  • 82 = 5x - 4
  • => 82 + 4 = 5x
  • => 86 = 5x
  • => x = 86/5
  • => x = 17.2

Therefore:

  • Answer of Problem 1: x = 10
  • Answer of Problem 2: x = 17.2

Hoped this helped.
