Question

Hi can somebody help me with this equation, please? 50=2(x+3)+10

Answer 1

Answer: x= 17

Explanation:

17 plus 3= 20

then you multiply 20 times 2 (PEMDAS)

Then you get 40 and 40 + 10

equals 50

Answer 2

Answer: x = 17

Explanation:

1) Subtract 10 from both sides

40 = 2(x+3)

2) Divide both sides by 2.

20 = x + 3

3) Subtract 3 from both sides

17 = x

x = 17
