108 + 108 - 2x = 180

Solve for x

1 answer

To solve the equation \( 108 + 108 - 2x = 180 \), follow these steps:

  1. Combine the constants on the left side: \[ 216 - 2x = 180 \]

  2. Subtract 216 from both sides: \[ -2x = 180 - 216 \] \[ -2x = -36 \]

  3. Divide both sides by -2: \[ x = \frac{-36}{-2} \] \[ x = 18 \]

So, the solution is \( x = 18 \).
