Was having some loading issues lol

Mehek (mehek14):

ok lets check if you're correct

Mehek (mehek14):

2x + 24 = 146 subtract 24 on both sides 2x = 122 divide 2 on both sides x = 61 you were wrong you didn't divide by 2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I missed that part didn't I? Why would you divide by 2?

Mehek (mehek14):

you can't leave 2x = 122 if you want to find the value of x, you have to get rid of 2 so you divide by 2 on both sides

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Which would be 2x over 2x cross out.. 122/2 is 61 ?

Mehek (mehek14):

yes
