Given the equation:
[tex]\frac{1}{2}x+4=9[/tex]solve for x
First, subtract 4 from both sides:
[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{1}{2}x+4-4=9-4 \\ \\ \frac{1}{2}x=5 \end{gathered}[/tex]Multiply both sides by 2:
[tex]\begin{gathered} 2\cdot\frac{1}{2}x=2\cdot5 \\ \\ x=10 \end{gathered}[/tex]so, the answer will be x = 10
