Answer:

(A)x= -8

Step-by-step explanation:

One-fourth x + 2 = \frac{1}{4}x+2

\frac{1}{4}x+2=-\frac{5}{8}x-5

Next, we Expand the Left hand Side by multiplying each term in the bracket by 1/4

\frac{1}{4}x+\frac{2}{4}=-\frac{5}{8}x-5

Bringing terms with x to the left Hand Side i.e. collecting like terms

\frac{1}{4}x+\frac{5}{8}x=-5-2\\\\(\frac{1}{4}+\frac{5}{8})x=-7\\\\\frac{7}{8}x=-7

On Cross multiplying

7x = -7 X 8

x=-\dfrac{7*8}{7}\\

x=-8

Write an equation that can be used to solve the following: The sum of a number, n, and a number 5 larger than it is 41.
navik [9.2K]

n + n + 5 = 41 (4) 5n + n + 1 = 41

<em>n and "5 larger than n" </em>

'5 larger than n' = equivalent to n + 5

We now have n + n + 5

The problem says 41, thus;

<em>n + n + 5 = 41</em>
