Answer:
[tex]x=22.125[/tex] or [tex]x=\frac{177}{8}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
The correct equation is
[tex]1/8(8x+15)=24[/tex]
solve for x
Multiply by 8 both sides to remove the fraction
[tex](8x+15)=192[/tex]
subtract 15 both sides
[tex]8x=192-15\\8x=177[/tex]
divide by 8 both sides
[tex]x=\frac{177}{8}[/tex]
[tex]x=22.125[/tex]
