For these problems, distribute the 2.
2(x+2)=4
2(x) + 2(2) = 4
2x + 4 = 4
Subtract 4
2x + 4 - 4 = 4 - 4
2x = 0
x = 0
This is the process you should use for all problems of this type.

2(x + 2) = 4 <=>
2x + 4 = 4 <=>
2x = 4 - 4 <=>
2x = 0 <=>
x = 0

Hey there!
Here's the answer.
2(x+2)=4 --> Write the problem.
x+2=2 --> Divide 2 on both sides of the equation.
x=0 Subtract 2 on both sides of the equation.
So the answer is x=0.
Hope it helps!

distribute first, 2x +4= 4, then 2x=0, so x= 0.
