First simplify on both sides of the equal sign:
8(x + 3) - 6 = -3(x +6)
8x + 24 - 6 = -3x - 18

Simplify further by combining like terms:
8x + 24 - 6 = -3x - 18
8x + 18 = -3x - 18

Next, get all the variables on one side of the equal sign and the constant on the other side. Do this by doing inverse operation:
8x + 18 = -3x - 18
+3x           +3x
11x + 18 = 18
        -18     -18
       11x = 0
  
Once you have the variables and numbers on different sides, perform the opposite operation.
So 11/11 cancels out
0/11 = 0

Therefore, x equals 0.

8x + 24 - 6 = -3x - 18
8x + 18 = - 3x - 18
8x + 3x = 0
11x = 0

Consider a picnic. if you want to buy enough hot dogs and buns without having any left over, you need to balance the number of p
Leni [432]
No guarantee that there will enough hotdogs for the buns, we must find the common multiple between the usual number of hot dogs and buns in each package.

Since we're looking for the smallest common multiple between 8 and 10, we can use the method shown below to compute for the least common multiple. 

8 = 2³ 
10 = 2 x 5
LCM = 2³ x 5 = 40

To purchase 40 hot dogs and buns, you need to buy 5 packages of buns and 4 packages of hot dogs.

Answer:

Hotdog: 4 packages
Buns: 5 packages
