1 Expand.

8x-6-8=4+2x8x−6−8=4+2x

2 Simplify 8x-6-88x−6−8 to 8x-148x−14.

8x-14=4+2x8x−14=4+2x

3 Add 1414 to both sides.

8x=4+2x+148x=4+2x+14

4 Simplify 4+2x+144+2x+14 to 2x+182x+18.

8x=2x+188x=2x+18

5 Subtract 2x2x from both sides.

8x-2x=188x−2x=18

6 Simplify 8x-2x8x−2x to 6x6x.

6x=186x=18

7 Divide both sides by 66.

x=\frac{18}{6}x=

8 Simplify \frac{18}{6}

to 33.

x=3x=3

Done Hope this helps let me know if u have any questions thank you

Step-by-step explanation:

1 Expand.

8x-6-8=4+2x8x−6−8=4+2x

2 Simplify 8x-6-88x−6−8 to 8x-148x−14.

8x-14=4+2x8x−14=4+2x

3 Add 1414 to both sides.

8x=4+2x+148x=4+2x+14

4 Simplify 4+2x+144+2x+14 to 2x+182x+18.

8x=2x+188x=2x+18

5 Subtract 2x2x from both sides.

8x-2x=188x−2x=18

6 Simplify 8x-2x8x−2x to 6x6x.

6x=186x=18

7 Divide both sides by 6.

x= 18/6

8 Simplify 18/6 to 3

x=3

The speed of boat in still water is 15km/hr if needs 4 more his to travel 63 km against the current of a river than it needs to

hram777 [196]

Answer:

$\frac{63}{15 - c} - \frac{63}{15 + c} = 4$

Step-by-step explanation:

The systems of equations are

Let us assume the rate of the current be c

Now actual speed against the current is (15 - c)

And, the actual speed with the current is (15 + c)

Here we applied the time formula i.e. distance by speed

Also the upstream time - downstream time = 4

Now the equations are

$\frac{63}{15 - c} - \frac{63}{15 + c} = 4$

Solve the equation by factoring: x^2 - 5x = 14

daser333 [38]

Answer:

x=7, x= -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Start by putting the whole equation to one side: x2-5x=14 ----> x2-5x-14=0
Next, factor the equation: x,x -7,2 ----> (x-7)(x+2)=0
Now, solve both equations: x-7=0....x=7 AND x+2=0.....x= -2
Plug both in to make sure that they are correct....both are correct

Simplify completely x^2+4x-5/5x^2-8x+3

arlik [135]

Answer:

$\boxed{\bold{\frac{x+5}{5x-3}}}$

Explanation:

[ Step One ] Factor $\bold{x^2+4x-5}$

$\bold{x\left(x-1\right)+5\left(x-1\right)}$

[ Step Two ] Rewrite Equation

$\bold{\frac{\left(x-1\right)\left(x+5\right)}{5x^2-8x+3}}$

[ Step Three ] Factor $\bold{5x^2-8x+3}$

$\bold{\left(x-1\right)\left(x+5\right)}$

[ Step Four ] Rewrite Equation

$\bold{\frac{\left(x-1\right)\left(x+5\right)}{\left(5x-3\right)\left(x-1\right)}}$

[ Step Five ] Cancel Out Common Factor $\bold{x-1}$

$\bold{\frac{x+5}{5x-3}}$

$\boxed{\bold{Mordancy}}$
