Answer:
x = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
since you want to solve for x, you want to get it by itself
to start, you want to try to get (x+2) by itself, and you can do this by multiplying both sides by the reciprocal of 3/4
[tex](\frac{4}{3}) \frac{3}{4}(x+2) = 6 (\frac{4}{3})[/tex]
since a number multiplied by its reciprocal is equal to 1, this leaves you with
[tex](x+2) = \frac{24}{3}[/tex]
[tex](x+2) = 8[/tex]
now, you can subtract 2 from both sides in order to get x by itself
[tex](x+2)-2 = 8-2[/tex]
[tex]x = 8-2=6[/tex]
and then you have your answer
x = 6
hope this helps :)
