Question

$$x+3(x+9)-2+5=584$$

Solve for x

$x = \frac{277}{2} = 138\frac{1}{2} = 138.5$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Use the distributive property to multiply $3$ by $x+9$.

$$x+3x+27-2+5=584$$

Combine $x$ and $3x$ to get $4x$.

$$4x+27-2+5=584$$

Subtract $2$ from $27$ to get $25$.

$$4x+25+5=584$$

Add $25$ and $5$ to get $30$.

$$4x+30=584$$

Subtract $30$ from both sides.

$$4x=584-30$$

Subtract $30$ from $584$ to get $554$.

$$4x=554$$

Divide both sides by $4$.

$$x=\frac{554}{4}$$

Reduce the fraction $\frac{554}{4}$ to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out $2$.

$$x=\frac{277}{2}$$
