Answer: x=−2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

4(8−x)−32=98−5(3x+24)

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

4(8−x)−32=98−5(3x+24)

(4)(8)+(4)(−x)+−32=98+(−5)(3x)+(−5)(24)(Distribute)

32+−4x+−32=98+−15x+−120

(−4x)+(32+−32)=(−15x)+(98+−120)(Combine Like Terms)

−4x=−15x+−22

−4x=−15x−22

Step 2: Add 15x to both sides.

−4x+15x=−15x−22+15x

11x=−22

Step 3: Divide both sides by 11.

11x /11 = −22 /11

x=−2

Kent multiplies both sides of the equation below by an expression.
Korolek [52]
The steps below are presented in order to arrive to the value of k of the given equation. 
First, multiply both sides of the equation by the variable k since the left-hand side of the equation has it in the denominator. This will be,  
            (k + 12/ k)(k) = 8(k)

Then, we simplify,
             k + 12 = 8k
We then, subtract 8k to both sides of the equation,
           k - 8k + 12 = 8k - 8k

Simplifying,
                  -7k + 12 = 0

Then, subtract 12 from both sides of the equation and divide both sides by -7. This will us the final answer of,                  
                     k = 12/7

Simplify.
Citrus2011 [14]
First I'd expand the brackets so that you can re-simplify the values, so:
(2x + 3)(3x + 4)
6x^2 + 9x + 8x + 12
6x^2 + 17x + 12
The answer A. 2x(3x + 4) + 3(3x + 4) can be simplified the same way, with 6x^2 + 8x + 9x + 12, and so the answer is A. I hope this helps!
