Answer:

its 3 :)

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

8 + -1(4x + 7) = 5(x + 6) + -2

Reorder the terms:

8 + -1(7 + 4x) = 5(x + 6) + -2

8 + (7 * -1 + 4x * -1) = 5(x + 6) + -2

8 + (-7 + -4x) = 5(x + 6) + -2

Combine like terms: 8 + -7 = 1

1 + -4x = 5(x + 6) + -2

Reorder the terms:

1 + -4x = 5(6 + x) + -2

1 + -4x = (6 * 5 + x * 5) + -2

1 + -4x = (30 + 5x) + -2

Reorder the terms:

1 + -4x = 30 + -2 + 5x

Combine like terms: 30 + -2 = 28

1 + -4x = 28 + 5x

Solving

1 + -4x = 28 + 5x

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-5x' to each side of the equation.

1 + -4x + -5x = 28 + 5x + -5x

Combine like terms: -4x + -5x = -9x

1 + -9x = 28 + 5x + -5x

Combine like terms: 5x + -5x = 0

1 + -9x = 28 + 0

1 + -9x = 28

Add '-1' to each side of the equation.

1 + -1 + -9x = 28 + -1

Combine like terms: 1 + -1 = 0

0 + -9x = 28 + -1

-9x = 28 + -1

Combine like terms: 28 + -1 = 27

-9x = 27

Divide each side by '-9'.

x = -3

Simplifying

x = -3

katovenus [111]

Step-by-step explanation:

Arithmetic mean has become the most widely used measure of central tendency of data. ... That is why arithmetic mean is regarded as the ideal measure of central tendency. One demerit of arithmetic mean is that it is affected by the extreme value (of observed data)

Clark borrow $16,000 to buy a car. He pays simple interest at an annual rate of 6% over a period of 3.5 years. How much does he
Paha777 [63]
The equation for annual interest is A = P(1 + r)^t. We can plug in the known information and get A = 16,000(1 + (0.06))^3.5. Next, we can simplify this equation to A = 16,000(1.06)^3.5. Finally, we raise 1.06 to the power of 3.5 and multiply that by 16,000 and get an answer of $19,619.62.

Hope this helps!
