Solve the equation. Justify each step.

3x + 4 = 31

3(2x + 1) = 15

1/2(16x - 8) = 2(x + 16)

If you can help me solve this that would be great! :)

3x + 4 = 31
Subtract 4 from both sides, then divide both sides by 3.

3(2x + 1) = 15
6x + 3 = 15
Subtract 3 from both sides, then divide both sides by 6.

1/2(16x - 8) = 2(x + 16)

8x - 4 = 2x + 32
