4x + 8 = \frac{2}{3}(9 + x)

12x + 24 = 2(9 + x)             <em>multiplied both sides by 3</em>

12x + 24 = 18 + 2x             <em>distributed 2 on the right side</em>

10x + 24 = 18                      <em>subtracted 2x from both sides</em>

         10x = -6                     <em>subtracted 24 from both sides</em>

         \frac{10x}{10} = \frac{-6}{10}           <em>divided both sides by 10</em>

           x = \frac{-3}{5}

Answer: \frac{-3}{5}

Translate the following word phrase into an algebraic expression: nine times five less than twice x.
bagirrra123 [75]

The given statement is "nine times five less than twice x".

So, twice of x can be written as 2x and nine times five is 9*5.

Now 9*5 less 2x means we need to take out 9*5 from 2x.

Hence, this statement will be converted into an algebraic expression as follows:

2x-9*5

D is wrong. It’s an exponential function so every year the number of stores it opens grows. Which means there can’t be one number for each year in terms of amount of new stores.
