2(x + 14) = 40 Can you please do all the steps of solving this?

Ex:
8(7+1)3=192

8 x (7+1) x 3
8
8x8=64
64x3=192
total=192

Given:

The equation is

To find:

The solution of the given equation.

Solution:

We have,

Using distributive property, we get

Subtracting 28 from both sides.

On dividing both sides by 2, we get

Therefore, the solution of the given equation is x = 6.

a) 0.25x times 3. (could be wrong on equation.)

b) 2.25 pound of dark chocolate. (can i eat all the chocolate? plz? anyway, again, could be wrong, but i hope im right. all the chocolate together should be 5.25 pounds)

have a good day!

x is greater than 5

step-by-step explanation:

2x+7 is greater than 17

    -7                           -7

2x is greater than 10

divide by 2 each side

x is greater than 5
