Solve 2(x/2+3)=-4*16

$$2 ( \frac { x } { 2 } + 3 ) = - 4 \times 16$$

Solve for x

$$x=-70$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Multiply both sides of the equation by 2.

$$4\left(\frac{x}{2}+3\right)=-8\times 16$$

Use the distributive property to multiply 4 by \frac{x}{2}+3.

$$4\times \frac{x}{2}+12=-8\times 16$$

Cancel out 2, the greatest common factor in 4 and 2.

$$2x+12=-8\times 16$$

Multiply -8 and 16 to get -128.

$$2x+12=-128$$

Subtract 12 from both sides.

$$2x=-128-12$$

Subtract 12 from -128 to get -140.

$$2x=-140$$

Divide both sides by 2.

$$x=\frac{-140}{2}$$

Divide -140 by 2 to get -70.

$$x=-70$$
