16 - 5(3t - 4) = 8(-2t + 11) <em>use distributive property</em>: <em>a(b + c) = ab + ac</em>
16 - (5)(3t) - (5)(-4) = (8)(-2t) + (8)(11)
16 - 15t + 20 = -16t + 88
36 - 15t = -16t + 88 <em>subtract 36 from both sides</em>
-15t = -16t + 52 <em>add 16t to both sides</em>
t = 52
Answer:
the patters is that they are multiple of 7.. so next number is 42.
which means option D <u>The missing number is even</u> is correct..
10x + 2y - 6 = 0
Multiply 5x + y - 3 = 0 by 2
2(5x + y - 3 = 0) = 10x + 2y - 6 = 0
