If a number in parenthesis is directly next to a number without, then the two numbers need multiplied.
-12(5/6)(-2/15) is an example of a double multiplication. But we'll multiply -12 and 5/6 first, then multiply the product by -2/15.
-12x5/6=14 2/5
14 2/5x-2/15=-1 23/25

Answer:
2
Step-by-step explanation:
![x^{3} =8\\x=\sqrt[3]{8} \\x=2](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=x%5E%7B3%7D%20%3D8%5C%5Cx%3D%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7B8%7D%20%5C%5Cx%3D2)
use your calculator
 
        
             
        
        
        
X=17
Distribute 2(x-5) 
You are left with 2x-10=24
You then want to get 2x by itself so add 10 on both sides so that you get 2x=34
Isolate x completely by dividing by 2 on both sides which then leaves you with x=17
