Solve the equation. Isolate the variable, x.
Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other.
First, subtract 8 and 10x from both sides:
2x (-10x) + 8 (-8) = 12 (-8) + 10x (-10x)
2x - 10x = 12 - 8
Simplify. Combine like terms:
(2x - 10x) = (12 - 8)
-8x = 4
Isolate the variable, x. Divide -8 from both sides:
(-8x)/-8 = (4)/-8
x = -(4/8)
Simplify:
x = -1/2
-1/2 is your answer for x.

Answer:
Yes.
Step-by-step explanation:
Reduce both fractions.
I think 20×5=100 then 100÷2
Answer:
(-8) + (-8) + (-8) + (-8)
Step-by-step explanation:
Since Yan is descending ; we represent his movement as being negative.
Number of rungs descended before stopping = 4
Number of stops = 8
Given that no extra steps was taken ;
Number of ladder rungs descended :
4 rungs per stop for 8 stops
- 4 * 8 = - 32 rungs
Another way to write the product :
Number of stops added in number of rungs descended :
(-8) + (-8) + (-8) + (-8)
I believe you are correct keep it up
