Answer:
x = - 1
Step-by-step explanation:
(8x + 12) = 3 ( multiply both sides by 4 to clear the fraction )
3(8x + 12) = 12 ( divide both sides by 3 )
8x + 12 = 4 ( subtract 12 from both sides )
8x = - 8 ( divide both sides by 8 )
x = - 1
Answer:
6x + 7
6 * 2
12 + 7
=19
Step-by-step explanation:
Y-5=3-9 (y+2)
Solve for y
Distribute the 9 to (y+2)
Y-5=3-9y-18
Y-5=-15-9y
+9y to both sides
10y-5=-15
+5 to both sides
10y=-10
÷10 both sides
Y= -1
2 (x-7)-10=12-4x
Solve for X
Distribute 2 to (x-7)
2x-14-10=12-4x
2x-24=12-4x
+4x to both sides
6x-24=12
+24 to both sides
6x=36
÷6 to both sides
X=6
