Answer:

x/2 + 21 = 36

First we get rid of constants to isolate the variable.

In order to do that we must do the inverse operation.

Inverse operation of addition is subtraction.

-21 -21(subtracting 21 from both sides, whatever we do to the left side we do it to the right side too)

x/2 = 15

inverse property of division is multiplication

x2 x2

X = 30
