4b=28+x+x
Add x to both sides.
4b=28+2x
Combine x and x to get 2x.
4b=2x+28
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{4b}{4}=\frac{2x+28}{4}
Divide both sides by 4.
b=\frac{2x+28}{4}
Dividing by 4 undoes the multiplication by 4.
b=\frac{x}{2}+7
Divide 28+2x by 4.
4b-x-x=28
Subtract x from both sides.
4b-2x=28
Combine -x and -x to get -2x.
-2x=28-4b
Subtract 4b from both sides.
\frac{-2x}{-2}=\frac{28-4b}{-2}
Divide both sides by -2.
x=\frac{28-4b}{-2}
Dividing by -2 undoes the multiplication by -2.
x=2b-14
Divide 28-4b by -2.
