One way can be 8x(6-4+2).

5/6(2x+12)-8=4-(x+1)

For this case we have the following equation:

$\frac {5} {6} (2x + 12) -8 = 4- (x + 1)$

We apply distributive property on the left side of the equation:

$\frac {5 * 2} {6} x + \frac {5 * 12} {6} -8 = 4- (x + 1)\\\frac {10} {6} x + \frac {60} {6} -8 = 4- (x + 1)$

We simplify the left side of the equation:

$\frac {5} {3} x + 10-8 = 4- (x + 1)$

Different signs are subtracted and the major sign is placed.

$\frac {5} {3} x + 2 = 4- (x + 1)$

On the right side we must take into account that:

$- * + = -$

So:

$\frac {5} {3} x + 2 = 4-x-1\\\frac {5} {3} x + 2 = 3-x$

We add x to both sides of the equation:

$\frac {5} {3} x + x + 2 = 3\\\frac {5 * 1 + 3 * 1} {3} x + 2 = 3\\\frac {5 + 3} {3} x + 2 = 3\\\frac {8} {3} x + 2 = 3$

We subtract 2 from both sides of the equation:

$\frac {8} {3} x = 3-2\\\frac {8} {3} x = 1$

We multiply by 3 on both sides of the equation:

$8x = 3$

We divide by 8 on both sides of the equation:

$x = \frac {3} {8}$

Thus, the solution of the equation is:

$x = \frac {3} {8}$

Answer:

$x = \frac {3} {8}$

The county fair charges $1.25 per ticket for the rides. Jermaine bought 25 tickets for the rides and spent a total of $43.75 at

satela [25.4K]

The total cost is the dependant variable and the number of tickets along with flat out price is the independent variable.

The equation would be y = 1.25x + ?

You would insert 25 for x which equals 31.25 and insert 43.75 for y.

43.75 = 31.25 + ? Then subtract 31.25 from both sides of the equation and you would get....

12.5 = ?

That is your flat rate to get in to the fair

A student fond the slope of a line that passes through the points (-8,-6) and (2,-3) to be 3/10. what mistake did she make?

goldfiish [28.3K]

Simple ....

we know to find slope is (y1-y2)/(x1-x2)

if we plug in what we know......

(-8,-6),(2,-3)

(-6--3)/(-8-2)

it turns into...

(-6++3)/(-8+-2)

(-3)/(-10)= 3/10

Thus, your answer is that she made no mistake. (C)
