Question

4(3x+2)+2=35

Answer 1

what is it not as a fraction

Answer 2

To solve the equation \( 4(3x + 2) + 2 = 35 \), we can follow these steps:

1. Distribute the \( 4 \) into the parentheses:

\[
4 \cdot 3x + 4 \cdot 2 = 12x + 8
\]

So the equation becomes:

\[
12x + 8 + 2 = 35
\]

2. Combine like terms on the left side:

\[
12x + 10 = 35
\]

3. Subtract \( 10 \) from both sides:

\[
12x = 35 - 10
\]

\[
12x = 25
\]

4. Divide both sides by \( 12 \):

\[
x = \frac{25}{12}
\]

Thus, the solution to the equation is

\[
\boxed{\frac{25}{12}}
\]
