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
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
