-2 = -(x-8)
-2 = -x + 8   ( - * + = -  and - * - = + )

-2 - 8 = -x +8 - 8
-2 - 8 = -x 
-(2+8) = - x
-10 = -x     | * (-1)

 x=10

Evan was broke didn't he got his weekly allowance but because he has a hard time saving money he spent half his weekly allowance
grin007 [14]

Answer:

$16

Step-by-step explanation:

Let his weekly allowance = x

Amount spent playing golf = x / 2

Amount earned for cleaning car = $4

Final amount at hand = $12

Mathematically ;

x/2 + 4 = 12

x/2 = 12 - 4

x/2 = 8

x = 2 * 8

x = $16

Weekly allowance = $16

How to solve 2x^2 - 4x = 3
zhenek [66]

Answer:

1 ± i(1/2)√2

Step-by-step explanation:

Write this quadratic in standard form:  subtract 3 from both sides.  This results in 2x^2 - 4x - 3 = 0.  Let's apply the quadratic formula.  The coefficients of the x terms are 2, -4 and -3, so the discriminant is (-4)^2 - 4(2)(-3), or 16 - 24 = -8.

Following the format of the quadratic formula, we get

     -(-4) ±i2√8       4 ±i2√2        

x = ----------------- = --------------- =  1 ± i(1/2)√2

               4                    4
