Mathematics

Answer: x=7


Step-by-step explanation: First to get rid of the parentheses we must multiply everything  times 2 in the parentheses. Then we must also do the same with the other parentheses multiply everything by 8.

2(x−3)=8(x−6)

2x-6=8x-48

Then we subtract 8x from both sides.

2x-6=8x-48

-6x-6=-48

Then add 6 to both sides

-6x-6=-48

-6x=-42

Finally divide both sides -6

-6x/-6=-42/-6

x=7

Hope this helps!

Solve the equation.<br> -5x + 2 = 67
ANEK [815]
The goal is to get x by itself. All we need to do is work around it.

1. -5x + 2 = 67
2. The reversed operation, or the opposite operation, for addition is subtraction. Thus subtract 2 from 67 and 2. The 2 should cancel itself out. -5x + [2-2=0] = 67 - 2 = 65 -> -5x = 65. 
3. The reversed operation, or the opposite operation of multiplication is division. Thus divide 65 and-5 as well as -5 and -5. [-5/-5x = 1x. 1x -> 1 * x = x.] = 65/-5 = -13 -> x = -13.
4. Check your answer by plugging in -13 where x is. Solve with pemdas.

-5(13) + 2 = 67 -> 65 + 2 = 67 -> 67 = 67. Therefore the answer is -13.

djyliett [7]
I believe this is the way to solve it.
 22 - 2 = 20
 20 is 90.9% of 22
So the probability of choosing a student with a sibling at random should be 90.9% (or you can round up to 91%)

I hope this helps :)
