Ok so assuming that the 'x' means multiply and not 'x' as in placeolder we do
PEMDAS
parenthaseees
exponents
multipilcation or division
additon or subtraction
parethasees simplify first
(8+7)=15
(9-3)=6
now we have
2x(15)-6/2x(6)
multiply
2x15=30
6/2x6=36/2=18
now we have
30-18
12
answer is 12
1. 1/9 since you take all the "a"s in the words which is 2/18
2.2/9 same thing as above
3.18/18 since there is no "O" it's a trick question
4.3/9
5.5/6 since you don't count 6
6.1/2 and 1/2 coins are always 1/2 unless you flip twice
7.5/13
8.1/2 because 1,3,5 odd 2,4,6 even
Hope that helps
<span>The answer is that x = 21/9.
Start with the original: 4(2x - 1) - 7 = 4 - x + 6
Now distribute the 4:</span> <span> 8x - 4 - 7 = 4 - x + 6.
Now combine the like terms. 8x - 11 = -x + 10.
Now add x to both sides. 9x - 11 = 10.
Now add 11 to both sides. 9x = 21.
And divide by 9 on both side. x = 21/9. </span>
Left 3 because the 3 is in the parenthesis
