What is the value of x

(2x+6) = 32

the value of x is 13 because 2 times 13 equals 26 and 26 plus 6 equals 32.

13

Step-by-step explanation:

(2x+6) = 32

Remove the brackets.

2x+6=32

Carry over the 6 to the 32. This means to put the like terms together.

2x = 32-6

2x = 26

2x = 26:2

x = 13

To find out if the answer was correct:

First replace the variable (s) or unknown (s) with the values that we got when we solved to find the value of the x.

x=13 so x would be replaced with 13.

When replacing the variable (s) with the value, put it in brackets like so:

2 (13) + 16 = 32

Remember brackets mean to multiply.

2*13+6=32

= 26+6 = 32

Therefore the x is 13.
