Example Question #291 : Algebraic Concepts

Solve for

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

By using order of operations we must first multiply by using the distributive property

This gives us:  

Next we must combine like terms:

Rewrite the equation after combining like terms: 

Add a positive 2 to both sides of the equation. 

Again combine like terms and rewrite equation 

Divide by 4 on both sides of the equation
