I apologize for the incomplete response. Here is the correct and complete solution:
Step 1: Distribute the 1/4 to the terms inside the parentheses.
1/4(x + 3) = 5(2).
Step 2: Simplify the expression.
x + 3 = 10.
Step 3: Subtract 3 from both sides.
x + 3 - 3 = 10 - 3.
Step 4: Simplify the expression.
x = 7.
