anonymous · Answer

which 1 u had like 3 answers

study312 · Answer

like this 14 + 2x = 62 solve it.

study312 · Answer

because its asking you to make an equation and solve it

study312 · Answer

now if you don't like 14 + 2x = 62 you can try and make another equation to find the value of one pass

anonymous · Answer

isn't it asking me to make an equation about the problem its asking me?

study312 · Answer

yes, isn't that what I just said?

anonymous · Answer

oh yea lol

anonymous · Answer

how do Ik wat x is?

study312 · Answer

so do you get it? make a equation from the question and solve it, I showed you the answer so that should help make the equation and solve it

study312 · Answer

well like this 14 + 2x = 62 

14 - 14 + 2x = 62 - 14. subtract 14 from both sides

2x = 48

48 ÷ 2 = 24.

x = 24
