If we take both sides of the equation 
and <em>multiply either expression by 3</em>, the equality becomes
Multiplication of both sides of an equality by the same number keeps the equality true, and we call this property the multiplication property of equality.
Answer: C. Distribute 3/4 over (x-8)
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve any(technically most, but still...) algebraic equation you must isolate the variable. In this case, the first step would either be to divide both sides of the equation by 3/4, or distribute 3/4 to x and -8, as you cannot modify the contents of the parenthesis without removing the 3/4.
Hope it helps and lmk if you further explanation <3 :)
Answer: y = -3
Explanation:
-8 = 2y - 2
-2y = -2 + 8
y = 6/-2
y = -3
5 is the in its value bc its on the y intercept meaning the starting point
