If 8x+12=24, What Is The Value Of 24x+36?

If 8x+12=24, what is the value of 24x+36?

 

Answer:

The value of x = 3/2 so 24x+36 = 72

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to know the value of x first:

8x + 12 = 24

       8x = 24 -12

       8x = 12            (divide both sides by 8)

        x = 12/8       (divisible by 4)

         x = 3/2 or  1 1/2

When x = 3/2 then 24x+36 = 72:

24x+36 = 72

24(3/2) + 36 = 72

72/2  + 36    = 72

    36 + 36   = 72

               72 = 72

Hope it helps...=)
