Answer 1

To solve for \( x \) in the equation \( 4(3x + 2) = 32 \), follow these steps:

1. Start by simplifying the equation:
\[
4(3x + 2) = 32
\]

2. Divide both sides of the equation by 4:
\[
3x + 2 = \frac{32}{4}
\]
\[
3x + 2 = 8
\]

3. Next, subtract 2 from both sides:
\[
3x = 8 - 2
\]
\[
3x = 6
\]

4. Finally, divide both sides by 3:
\[
x = \frac{6}{3}
\]
\[
x = 2
\]

The solution is:
\[
\boxed{2}
\]
