Answer:
x = 15
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex] \frac{1}{4} (2x - 14) = 4[/tex]
Multiply through by 4 in order to eliminate the fraction
That's
[tex]4 \times \frac{1}{4} (2x - 14) = 4 \times 4 \\ 2x - 14 = 16[/tex]
Using the addition property add 14 to both sides
[tex]2x - 14 + 14 = 16 + 14 \\ 2x = 30[/tex]
Divide both sides by 2
[tex] \frac{2x}{2} = \frac{30}{2} [/tex]
We have the final answer as
x = 15
