Step 1: 816+24x=1,200
Reason: We distributed the 24 to both terms inside the parentheses.
Step 2: 816−816+24x=1,200−816
Reason: We subtracted 816 from both sides to isolate the term with x on one side of the equation.
Step 3: 24x=384
Reason: We simplified the equation by combining like terms on the left side of the equation.
Step 4: x=16
Reason: We divided both sides of the equation by 24 to solve for x.
To solve the equation: 24(34+x)=1,200
, give the reasons for each of the given steps.
