Answer:
x = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex] \frac{2x - 4}{5} =4[/tex]
First of all multiply through by 5 to eliminate the fraction
That's
[tex]5 \times \frac{2x - 4}{5} = 4 \times 5 \\ 2x - 4 = 20[/tex]
Next using the addition property add 4 to both sides of the equation
We have
[tex]2x - 4 + 4 = 20 + 4 \\ 2x = 24[/tex]
Divide both sides by 2
[tex] \frac{2x}{2} = \frac{24}{2} [/tex]
We have the final answer as
x = 12
Hope this helps you
