the answer is 21 it really not it just I have to do this for this app that won't give me these for answers
The equation would be
8 = 6x + 2
the “number” is unknown, so it’s x.
6 times the number would be 6x.
The sum of 6x and 2 means adding together 6x and 2, so 6x + 2
And it’s supposed to equal 8
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Given
See attachment for illustration
Required
Find x
To do this, we apply Pythagoras theorem.
From the attachment, the length of the hypotenuse is 16.7ft
While the length of the opposite/adjacent is 8.9ft
Length x is calculated using:



Take square roots


X=3
Divide both sides of the equation by 2
X^3 =27
Write the number in exponential form with an exponent of 3
X^3=3^3
Since the exponents are the same, set the bases equal
X=3
