Question 525379
{{{3x+8+x=28}}} Start with the given equation.



{{{4x+8=28}}} Combine like terms on the left side.



{{{4x=28-8}}} Subtract {{{8}}} from both sides.



{{{4x=20}}} Combine like terms on the right side.



{{{x=(20)/(4)}}} Divide both sides by {{{4}}} to isolate {{{x}}}.



{{{x=5}}} Reduce.
