8-2x=-8x+14 answer choices x=-1 x=-3/5 x=3/5 x=1

2 answers:

8 0

First you add 8x to both sides because a positive is the opposite to a negative and it’s cancels out

8-2x = -8x+14
+8x +8x

8+6x = 14

Next you subtract 8 to both sides

8+6x = 14
-8 -8

6x = 6

Last you divided 6 so x can be by itself

6x = 6
/6 /6

The answer is x=1

Hello there!

8 - 2x = -8x + 14

Let's start by subtracting 8 to both sides

8 - 2x - 8 = -8x + 14 - 8

-2x = -8x + 6

Let's add 8x to both sides

-2x + 8x = -8x + 6 +8x

6x = 6

Divide both sides by 6

6x/6 = 6/6

x = 1

The correct answer is option D

I hope this helps!

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If the tank holds 2500 liters and there are already 750 liters in there, he only needs to buy 1750 liters.

If he is saving 6%, he is still spending 94%, so

.94(58.4) = 54.896 (what he'll be paying per liter after the 6% comes off, then

54.896(1750) = $96,068

A and T are points. On their own, they cannot define a line. So we can rule out choice A

WCR and TRA are angles. For any triple the points do not fall on the same straight line. So we cannot define any lines here. This crosses off choice B

Choice C is the answer because WC does define a line. We only need two points to form a line. Similarly CR does the same job. We draw a line marker with two arrows at each end to be placed over the letters to indicate "line".

Choice D is similar to choice D; however, it is not the answer because WT is the same line as WC. In other words, WC = WT. We haven't named a new line at all. We're simply repeating ourselves.
