Answer:

x=8

Step-by-step explanation:

3(x+4)=36

Divide each side by 3

3/3 (x+4)=36/3

x+4 = 12

Subtract 4 from each side

x+4-4 = 12-4

x = 8

Distributive property example: A(B + C) = AB + AC

Simplify the equation:

3(x + 4) = 36

(3 * x) + (3 * 4) = 36

3x + 12 = 36

Now, solve for x:

3x + 12 - 12 = 36 - 12

3x = 24

3x/3 = 24/3

x = 8

Best of Luck!
