Answer:
x = 30
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]\frac{x}{2}[/tex] + 8 = 23 ( subtract 8 from both sides )
[tex]\frac{x}{2}[/tex] = 15
Multiply both sides by 2 to clear the fraction
x = 15 × 2 = 30
Answer:
x = 30
Step-by-step explanation:
The first step is to subtract 8 from both sides so x has one side alone
[tex]\frac{x}{2}[/tex] + 8 =23
[tex]\frac{x}{2}[/tex]=15 now you multiply both sides by 2 so the x isn't a fraction
[tex]\frac{x}{2}[/tex] * [tex]\frac{2}{1}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{x}{1}[/tex] = x 15 * 2 = 30
x=30
