14/9 because u just flip it to cancel it out
Step-by-step explanation:
If there 5% is allowed in Rs 1,580 than the selling price of the watch is 1,501
-2(x + 3) = 8
Multiply -2 with x and 3
-2x -6 = 8
Now add 6 to both sides
-2x -6 = 8
+6 +8
-2x = 16
Lastly divide -2 from both sides to find x
-2x = 16
—— —-
-2x -2x
X = -8
