Question

Solve by describing your steps

`(x)/(4) + 2 = 10`

Answer 1

x=32

Explanation:

To solve, we need to isolate the variable, x

`(x)/(4) +2=10`

Subtract 2 from both sides

`((x)/(4)+2)-2=10-2`

`(x)/(4) =8`

Multiply both sides by 4

`4((x)/(4))=8(4)`

x=32

Answer 2

x = 32

Explanation:

x/4 +2 = 10

Subtract 2 from each side

x/4 +2-2 = 10-2

x/4 =8

Multiply each side by 4

x/4 *4 = 8*4

x = 32
