Question

4(2x−3)= 28 solve for x

Answer 1

Start with what we know:

4(2x-3) = 28

Now we do rainbow property aka distributive property:

4*2x=8x

4*-3=-12

now we have:

8x - 12 = 28

we have to get 8x alone:

we will add 12 to both sides:

8x= 40

now we have to get x alone:

8x/8=x

40/8=5

now we put that into a equation:

x=5

Answer 2

5

Explanation:

multiply

8x - 12 = 28

add 12 to both sides

8x = 40
