Solve the equation for x. 2x + 22 = 4(x+3)

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the algebraic expression and are asked to solve for x.

To solve, we need to isolate x.

2x + 22 = 4(x + 3)

Distribute :

2x + 22 = (4(x) + 4(3))

2x + 22 = 4x + 12

Subtract 12 from both sides :

2x + 10 = 4x

4x = 2x + 10

Subtract 2x from both sides :

2x = 10

Divide 2 from both sides to get x alone :

x = 5

step-by-step explanation:

left be aligning the decimal points is required to not required see the number of digits to the right

this is a good question! i'll do some research and come back when i have the answer!
