Isolate the x. Note the equal sign. What you do to one side, you do to the other.
First, subtract 2 from both sides
2 (-2) - x = (5/8) - 2
-x = 5/8 - 2
Make sure they have the same denominator. Remember that what you multiply to the denominator, you multiply the numerator:
-x = 5/8 - 16/8
-x = - 11/8
Isolate the x. Divide -1 from both sides
(-x)/-1 = (-11/8)/-1
x = 11/8
11/8 is your answer for x

Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
If you add all of the numbers together and divide by the total (15) you would get 11.333
(7+8+8+9+11+11+12+12+12+12+12+13+14+14+15) divided by 15 equals 11.3333
(10,695/15,500 -1) * 100% = -31%
The price was decreased 31%.

To “distribute” means to divide something or give a share or part of something. According to the distributive property, multiplying the sum of two or more addends by a number will give the same result as multiplying each addend individually by the number and then adding the products together.
Answer:
A. 18÷2/9
Step-by-step explanation:
A. 18÷2/9
B. 18×2/9
C. 2/9÷18
D. 9/2÷18
Let
Total length of box = 18 inches
Thickness of each book = 2/9 inches
Number of books that will fit into the box = x
Number of books that will fit into the box = Total length of box ÷ Thickness of each book
x = 18 ÷ 2/9
= 18 × 9/2
= 162/2
= 81 books
The correct answer is A. 18÷2/9
