Answer:
x = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
1. 8 (x + 2) = 56 Distribute the 8
2. 8x + 16 = 56 Subtract 16 from both sides
3. 8x = 40 Divide both sides by 8
4. x = 5
Hey! I'll provide you the answers!
First you want to simplify the equation using cross-multiplication.
Finally, you would want to divide both sides by 15.
n = 161
1 meter = 1000 millimeters
so, 5 meters = 5*1000 = 5000 millimeters
and 6000 millimeters = 6000 / 1000 = 6 meters
