To see if 8 is the solution to the equation, 3 (x - 2) + 4 = 22, you must replace x with 8 and solve using the rules of PEMDAS (Parentheses, Exponent, Multiplication, Division, Addition, Subtraction) REMEMBER: IF NOT APPLICABLE TO THE EQUATION YOU MAY SKIP THAT STEP IN PEMDAS . If the sides are equal to each other then 8 IS a solution.
3(8 - 2) + 4 = 22
Parentheses...
3(8 - 2) + 4 = 22
8 - 2 <<<In the parentheses so you must solve first
6
so...
3(6) + 4 = 22
Multiplication...
3(6) + 4 = 22
3 * 6
18
so..
18 + 4 = 22
Addition...
18 + 4 = 22
18 + 4
22
so...
22 = 22
Are they equal to each other? YES!!!
8 is a solution to the equation 3 (x - 2) + 4 = 22
Hope this helped!

Yes, because the whole number 36 is greater than 0.
Your answer is 5.
You can think of it as 7-2 because -2 is less than zero so you would have to subtract it from 7.
Answer:
a = 0.
Step-by-step explanation:
2(a - 4) = 2a - 8 + 4a
2a - 8 = 2a - 8 + 4a
2a - 2a - 4a = -8 + 8
-4a = 0
a = 0.
For this case we must convert from yards to inches. By definition we have to:
1 yard equals 36 inches
Making a rule of three we have:
1 yd ----------> 36 in
5 yd ----------> x
Where "x" represents the number of inches equivalent to 5 yards.

Thus, 5 yards represents 180 inches.
Answer:
180 inch
