4x + 2 = 38

To tackle this problem, it is essential that you remember that whatever you do to one side of an equation, you have to do to the other.

First, subtract 2 from both sides of the equation to get the x term on one side, and the rest of the equation on the other

4x+2=38

-2 -2

4x=36

Now, all we have to do is divide both sides by 4 in order to get the x all by itself. 36/4=9, so x=9.
