I'm not sure if this is a multiple choice question, so I will just solve the equation.
-5 (4x - 7) + 8 = 3x
-5 (4x + (-7)) + 8 = 3x
1. Distributive Property of Multiplication
(-5)(4x) + (-5)(-7) + 8 = 3x
2. Simplify
-20x + (-35) + 8 = 3x
3. Simplify again
-20x - 27 = 3x
4. Add 27 to both sides and then subtract 3x from both sides to get all the x's by themselves on the same side
-20x - 27 + 27 = 3x + 27
-20x - 3x = 3x + 27 - 3x
5. Simplify
-23x = 27
6. Divide
-23x / -23 = 27 / -23
7. Simplify
Answer:
<h2>
x = - 27/23 ≈ -1.17</h2>
Hope this helps!
Given:
Student ticket price = $7
A group of 4 students and 3 adults paid $64 in all for movie tickets.
To find:
Each of the adult ticket cost.
Solution:
Let x be the cost of each adult ticket.
Then, cost of 3 adult tickets = 3x.
Cost of 1 student ticket = $7
Cost of 4 student ticket = $7(4)
According to the question,
Divide both sides by 3.
Therefore, the cost of each adult ticket is $12.
A trapezoid is a quadrilateral which means the sum of the angles should be equal to 360 degrees. The other angles therefore should have the sum of 360 - 60 - 45 = 255 degrees. Since we do not have the figure it would be hard to specify the measure of each angle.

How to calculate 12 divided by 4
Long Division
Here we will show you step-by-step with detailed explanation how to calculate 12 divided by 4 using long division.
Before you continue, note that in the problem 12 divided by 4, the numbers are defined as follows:
12 = dividend
4 = divisor
Step 1:
Start by setting it up with the divisor 4 on the left side and the dividend 12 on the right side like this:
4 ⟌ 1 2
Step 2:
The divisor (4) goes into the first digit of the dividend (1), 0 time(s). Therefore, put 0 on top:
0
4 ⟌ 1 2
Step 3:
Multiply the divisor by the result in the previous step (4 x 0 = 0) and write that answer below the dividend.
0
4 ⟌ 1 2
0
Step 4:
Subtract the result in the previous step from the first digit of the dividend (1 - 0 = 1) and write the answer below.
0
4 ⟌ 1 2
- 0
1
Step 5:
Move down the 2nd digit of the dividend (2) like this:
0
4 ⟌ 1 2
- 0
1 2
Step 6:
The divisor (4) goes into the bottom number (12), 3 time(s). Therefore, put 3 on top:
0 3
4 ⟌ 1 2
- 0
1 2
Step 7:
Multiply the divisor by the result in the previous step (4 x 3 = 12) and write that answer at the bottom:
0 3
4 ⟌ 1 2
- 0
1 2
1 2
Step 8:
Subtract the result in the previous step from the number written above it. (12 - 12 = 0) and write the answer at the bottom.
0 3
4 ⟌ 1 2
- 0
1 2
- 1 2
