Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
3x+4=31
subtract 4 on both sides That gives you
3x=27
now divide 27 by 3
that gives you X=9
———————————————-
3(2x+1)
you distribute 3 into the parentheses
so 3 x 2x is 6x 3x1 is 3
so its 6x+3
————————————————
1/2(16x-8)=2(x+16)
first you distribute 1/2 into the parentheses on the left side and distribute 2 into the parentheses on the right
which gives you 8x-4=2x+32
then you combine like terms 8x+2x is 10x and -4+32 is 28
so you answer to this one is 10x+28
