Answer:
10.5
Step-by-step explanation:
4(x-2)=34
Divide both sides by 4.
[tex]x-2=\frac{34}{4}[/tex]
Reduce the fraction.
[tex]x-2=\frac{17}{2}[/tex]
Add 2 to both sides.
[tex]x=\frac{17}{2}+2[/tex]
Convert 2 into the fraction [tex]\frac{4}{2}[/tex].
[tex]x=\frac{17}{2} +[/tex][tex]\frac{4}{2}[/tex]
Add the fractions by adding their numerators.
[tex]x=\frac{17+4}{2}[/tex]
Add 17 and 4 to get 21
[tex]x=\frac{21}{2}[/tex] or 10.5
have a nice day!
