4(x+3)+4=20 explain steps to this equation

No Solution since it would equal 17=20

Step-by-step explanation:

4 (x) and 4 (3) + 4 *because you distrubute the number outside the parenthesis*

4x + 12 + 4 = 20 so combine like terms (12 + 4) = 16 so

4x+16=20

    -16   -16

4x = 4

divide 4

x=1

x ≥ 18 is your answer

step-by-step explanation:

let "a number" = x

(2/3)x + 17 ≥ 29

isolate the variable (x). do the opposite of pemdas (parenthesis, exponent (& root), multiplication, division, addition, subtraction).

first, subtract 17 from both sides.

(2/3)x + 17 (-17) ≥ 29 (-17)

(2/3)x ≥ 29 - 17

(2/3)x ≥ 12

next, multiply 3/2 to both sides to isolate the x

(3/2)(2/3)x ≥ 12(3/2)

x ≥ 12(3/2)

simplify. multiply, then divide

x ≥ (12 * 3)/2

x ≥ (36)/2

x ≥ 18

x ≥ 18 is your answer
