What is the value of x?

(2x + 24)

144

x = 60

Step-by-step explanation:

You must say whether or not (2x + 24) and 144 are related.

If you meant the equation (2x + 24) = 144, we can indeed solve that for x:

Divide all terms by 2, obtaining x + 12 = 72.

Subtract 12 from both sides, obtaining x = 60 (answer)

x = 60

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + 24 = 144.

Subtract 24 from each side to isolate 2x. This leaves 2x = 120.

Divide by 2 to isolate x. This leaves x = 60.
