Hello!
So the problem is 2x-8 = 2(x-4). First off, let's perform the distributive property on the right side of the expression. 2 * x is 2x. 2 * -4 is -8. That makes the right side 2x-8. 2x - 8 = 2x-8, so nothing else needs to be done. Because both sides are identical, all real numbers are the solution.
You divide the numerator (top number) by the denominator (bottom number) and you should get a decimal now all you have to do is move the decimal point two places the right and you should get your answer
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
m + 5 = 17 ( subtract 5 from both sides )
m = 12 ( multiply both sides by 3 to clear the fraction )
2m = 36 ( divide both sides by 2 )
m = 18 → C
-5X-5=25
25+3=28
5X-7=-35
-35+6=-29
25>-29
