.What is the value of x if 2(x+1) = 16 ?​

2(x +1) = 16

Use the distributive property ( multiply 2 by each term inside the parenthesis).

2x + 2 = 16

Subtract 2 from both sides:

2x = 14

Divide both sides by 2:

x = 7

7

Step-by-step explanation:

2x+2=16

2x=16-2

x=16-2/2

x=14/2=7

typically if you want , you would actually put questions here for us to you. but hey, that's just me. maybe someone will magically answer the questions for you without knowing what they are.
