Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
2X+4)+(2X+4)+X+X=38
Lets add our X's and then add our whole numbers. 6X+8=38
Lets work our sentence by subtracting 8 from each side of the equal sign.
6X+8–8=38–8
6X=30
Lets divide each side by 6.
6X/6=30/6
X=5 now lets prove 5 is X.
(2×5+4)+(2×5+4)+5+5=38
(14)+(14)+5+5=38
28+10=38
38=38
X is equal to 5.
