Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
<em>Identify</em>
8x - (2x - 13) = 42
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>
- [Distributive Property] Distribute negative: 8x - 2x + 13 = 42
- [Subtraction] Combine like terms: 6x + 13 = 42
- [Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 13 on both sides: 6x = 29
- [Division Property of Equality] Divide 6 on both sides: x = 29/6
<u>Step 3: Check</u>
<em>Plug in x into the original equation to verify it's a solution.</em>
- Substitute in <em>x</em>: 8(29/6) - [2(29/6) - 13] = 42
- Multiply: 116/3 - [29/3 - 13] = 42
- [Brackets] Subtract: 116/3 - -10/3 = 42
- Subtract: 42 = 42
Here we see 42 does indeed equal 42.
∴ x = 29/6 is the solution.
If that is a decimal the 1 would be in the tenths. If it is a whole number it would be in the hundred thousands

8,-4 : 6,-2 : 5,-1 All should add up to four.
