Question

Could someone help with question 10?

Answer 1

Dang. You got me with this one, but this is what I got. Definitely double check the differences between my work and your work. I didn’t have time to double check my own work. Good luck, and I hope this helps!

Answer 2

I'll try.

$\times 2 \frac{x - 2}{8} = \frac{6}{7} + \frac{x - 1}{2} \times 2$
$\frac{x - 2}{16} = \frac{6}{7} + x - 1$
$\frac{x - 2}{16} = - \frac{1}{7} + x$
Multiply 16 on both sides.
$x - 2 = 16x - \frac{16}{7}$
Combine like terms.
$15x = \frac{2}{7}$
Solve.
$x = \frac{2}{105}$
I tried. I'm not exactly certain but I bet you get what you should be doing and you will just do better than me.
