2x+16=3x-4(x+2)

2 x + 16 = 3 x - 4 (x + 2)

x = - 8

Solution steps

2 x + 16 = 3 x - 4 (x + 2)

Expand

- 4 (x + 2) : - 4 x - 8

2 x + 16 = 3 x - 4 x - 8

Add similar elements:

3 x - 4 x = - x

2 x + 16 = - x - 8

Move

16

to the right side

2 x = - x - 24

Move

x

to the left side

3 x = - 24

Divide both sides by

3

x = - 8

x^{5} + y^{5}

x^{\frac{1}{2}} (x)

\frac{3 x}{4} - \frac{1}{2} = \frac{x - 2}{6}

y^{3} + 512

R^{2} + 12 = 7 R
