Hi , the answer is -1 , because -1 is the number that is closest to zero.
Your answer is x = 3 because if you take 150 and subtract it by both sides:
150 - 35x = 45
-150 -150
you have to cross out both 150 and -150, take 45 and subtract 150 which will give you -105.
-35x = -105
take -35 and divide by both sides. Cross out the two -35's. Take -105/-35 which your answer is x = 3. Hopes this helps. :)

Answer:
The width of Tyrone's actual patio is 16 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
= 
If we look at what we know, we see that the scale tells us that 1 inch is proportional to 2 ft. What do we need to multiple 1 inch by to get 8 inches? 8. So, we multiply 2 feet by 8 to get the actual size of the patio which is 16 feet.
Answer:
3
Step-by-step explanation:
4(x + 1) + 8 = 24
Subtract 8 from each side
4(x + 1) + 8-8 = 24-8
4(x + 1) = 16
Divide by 4
4(x+1)/4 = 16/4
x+1 = 4
Subtract 1
x+1-1 = 4-1
x=3
