Answer:
x=13
Explanation:
Simplifying
8 + 2x = 34
Solving
8 + 2x = 34
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-8' to each side of the equation.
8 + -8 + 2x = 34 + -8
Combine like terms: 8 + -8 = 0
0 + 2x = 34 + -8
2x = 34 + -8
Combine like terms: 34 + -8 = 26
2x = 26
Divide each side by '2'.
x = 13
Simplifying
x = 13
