Distribute 2 and remove parentheses :
1/2x+8=3x-6
Multiply both sides of equation by 2:
x+16=6x-12
Move terms:
x+16-6x=-12
x-6x=-12-16
Collect like terms:
-5x=-28
Divide both sides:
x=28/5

Answer:

[tex]x = \frac{28}{5} [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

2 (1/4x + 4) = 3 (x - 2)

1/2x + 8 = 3x - 6

x + 16 = 6x - 12

x - 6x = -12 - 16

-5x = -28

x = 28 ÷ 5

x = 28/5
