What is the solution to this equation? 4x + 2(x + 6) = 36
O A. x = 7
B. x = 5
O c. x = 4
D. x = 8

Simplifying

4x + 2(x + 6) = 36

Reorder the terms:

4x + 2(6 + x) = 36

4x + (6 * 2 + x * 2) = 36

4x + (12 + 2x) = 36

Reorder the terms:

12 + 4x + 2x = 36

Combine like terms: 4x + 2x = 6x

12 + 6x = 36

Solving

12 + 6x = 36

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-12' to each side of the equation.

12 + -12 + 6x = 36 + -12

Combine like terms: 12 + -12 = 0

0 + 6x = 36 + -12

6x = 36 + -12

Combine like terms: 36 + -12 = 24

6x = 24

Divide each side by '6'.

x = 4

Simplifying

x = 4
