<h3>Simplifying an Expression</h3>
From the question, we are to simplify the given expression
The given expression is
53 -2(16/8 * 16-7)
Simplifying
Using BODMAS
53 -2(16/8 × 16-7)
53 -2(2 × 16-7)
53 -2(32-7)
53 -2(25)
53 -50
= 3
Hence, the simplified form of the expression is 3

Answer:
and the question is...
Step-by-step explanation:
2x +8=2x+8
2x-2x=8-8
0x=0
So the answer is 0
Hi there!
Let the first number be represented by X.
The second number (which is 2 more than four times the other), can be represented by 4X + 2.
We can now find the sum of this expression.
X + 4X + 2
Collect terms
5X + 2
The sum of the numbers is 18. Therefore we can set up the following equation.
5X + 2 = 18
Subtract 2.
5X = 16
Divide both sides by 5.
X = 16/5 = 3 1/5.
Therefore, the first number is 3 1/5. To find the second number we must plug in X = 3 1/5 into the expression 4X + 2
4 * (3 1/5) + 2 = 12 4/5 + 2 = 14 4/5
The two numbers are
