Answer: x=4

For this equation, you are solving for x. So first you want to get the 1/2x on a side by its self to make it easier to solve. So to do that subtract both sides by 3. (2=1/2x) Once you do that multiply both sides by 2 to get rid of the 1/2 so x is on one side by itself. (4=x) And that's your answer!

Hope this helped you!
