What is the solution to the equation PLS

x=2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

the first thing you want to do is simplify like terms.

you could say this is as 4(x+7)=38

this can easily be solved algebraically.

first use distributive property on the four

this leaves you with 4x+28=38

next, subtract 28 from both sides

4x=10

now divide everything by four and you get x=2.5

let's solve your equation step-by-step.

4x+2=2x+12

step 1: subtract 2x from both sides.

4x+2−2x=2x+12−2x

2x+2=12

step 2: subtract 2 from both sides.

2x+2−2=12−2

2x=10

step 3: divide both sides by 2.

2x
