Answer:


\boxed{\sf x = 8.67}

Explanation:


\sf 6(6 + x) = 4(4 + 18)

Use the distributive property to multiply 6 by (6+x).


\sf 36+6x=4(4+18)

Let's add 4 and 18 = 22.


\sf 36+6x=4 * 22

Multiply 4 and 22 = 88.


\sf 36+6x=88

Subtract 36 from both sides.


\sf 6x=88 - 36


\sf 6x=52

Divide both sides by 6.


\sf x = 8.67
