Solve for variable. x + (12 - x)=38

OpenStudy (ghazi):

is your equation correct? :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah. it's typed on my summer hw.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

that i got from school. :/

OpenStudy (ghazi):

how come 12 = 38....just open the brackets

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i have no idea....that's why i asked.

OpenStudy (ghazi):

well...then question is wrong...it can be x+(x-12)=38....then it'll be 2x=38-12..solve for x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

right....but it must be a typo from school. i'll just do what you said..

OpenStudy (ghazi):

okay :)
