Answer:

x=7

Step-by-step explanation:

➼Okay, so first thing you need to do is to distribute the 8 to everything in the parentheses:

8(5x+ 2) = 296

8 times 5x

8 times 2

(8 x 5x) + (8 x 2) = 40x + 16

➼Now you solve for x

40x+16=296

➼to get rid of 40 you have to do the opposite and divide it by everything

40x+16=296

40/40=0

16/40=0.4

296/40=7.4

➼all adds up to x + .4 = 7.4 but to get the x alone you need to get rid of the .4, we'll do this by doing the opposite and subtract it from everything

.4-.4=0

7.4-.4=7

➼so in conclusion

x=7
