Ugo [173]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

x = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

\frac{8}{x+1} = \frac{-16}{x+4}

=============================================================

Cross multiplying the terms :

⇒ 8 (x + 4) = -16 (x + 1)

⇒ 8x + 32 = -16x - 16

⇒ 24x = -48

⇒ x = -2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

So we would have to multiply the "2x - 8" by 5 each resulting in 10x - 40 + 15. Then we subtract which results in 10x - 25 = - 15. We add 25 to 25 and 15 resulting in 10x = 10. We divide each by 10 which results in x = 1.
