Step-by-step explanation:
8x-5= 6x + 1
8x - 6x = 1+5
2x = 6
x= 2/6 = 1/3
x= 0.333
7(x-2) + 3(x + 2) = 5(x-6)...distribute thru the parenthesis
7x - 14 + 3x + 6 = 5x - 30...combine like terms
10x - 8 = 5x - 30...subtract 5x from both sides
10x - 5x - 8 = -30....add 8 to both sides
10x - 5x = -30 + 8...combine like terms
5x = - 22
x = -22/5 = - 4 2/5 <==
Answer:
32
Step-by-step explanation:
The sequence is going six numbers up each time. For example 2 plus six is 8. 8 plus six is 14. 14 plus six is 20 and so on.
