Solve for x:  <span>8x-5=-3(3-2x)

1.  Carry out the indicated multiplication:  8x - 5 = - 9 + 6x
2.  Combine like terms:  2x = -4
3.  Solve this final equation for x:     x = -2         (answer)

The first step would be to simplify both sides of the equal sign as much as possible. 
8x - 5 = -3(3 - 2x)
8x - 5 = -9 - (-6x)
8x - 5 = -9 + 6x

Next, you would need to combine like terms on both sides of the equal sign to one on one side of the equal sign and one on the other. 
8x - 5 = -9 + 6x
2x - 5 = -9
2x = -4

Now, all you have to do is isolate the x. To do this, you would divide both sides by 2. 
2x = -4
x = -2

I hope this helps!

The distance further the friend walked is 0.41 miles.

<h3>How much farther did the friend walk?</h3>

The distance the friend walked can be determined by calculating the circumference of a semicircle.

Circumference of a semicircle = πr + 2r

r = 0.25 / 2 = 0.125mi

3.14 x 0.125 + 0.25 = 0.66 mi

Difference in the distance = 0.66 - 0.25 = 0.41 miles
