Intro

- Hi, welcome to this question right here. So, we're trying to solve the x again. But this time, there's actually a little bit more than before. We have a bracket now, okay? So, remember, if you're trying to solve the x, at the end it has to be by itself. So, you're trying to remove the things around it first. So, the eight is further away from the x so, that's something you might want to get rid of first. Because you can't touch the inside unless you remove that something that's on the outside first, right? 
So, what I want to do first is, actually, I'll divide by eight on both sides. Or we can think of on a cross multiply. Just times eight to the bottom. Same thing happens. So, those eights get canceled. So, 11 over. . .sorry, 11.32 divided by eight, we have 1.415. So, this is what I have on the left hand side so far. Now, once I divide that eight out of the question and the bracket gets dropped, okay? So, you just have to worry about what's in the bracket now. So, you don't have to write the brackets anymore. And then, once you're done with that, there's a plus between the two, okay? 
So, to remove this guy right here, I will subtract 0.61 to both sides, okay? Now, it'd probably be easier to see. So, what happens is that got canceled. So, you take your 1.415 and minus .61, you get yourself 0.805. 0.805 and that is final answer for this question. Because there's nothing else. It's just x. Thanks for watching.

When you see equations in the form of a(x+b) =c, you can remove the bracket and rewrite the equations into ax+ab =c  using the distributive property. In this lesson, we will make use of this property to help us solve linear equations.
