The answer to question one would be "D" y<-3
For question two the answer would be "C" x<5
Hope that helps!
Let x be the number.
"twelve decreased by twice a number" ---> 12 - 2x
"8 times the sum of number and 4" ---> 8(x + 4)
12 - 2x = 8(x + 4)
12 - 2x = 8x + 32 (distributive property)
12 = 10x + 32 (add 2x to both sides)
-20 = 10x (subtract 32 from both sides)
x = -2 (divide both sides by 10)

Answer:
x=-3
Step-by-step explanation:
(4)(2) + 4x = -4
multiply the 4 and 2
8 + 4x = -4
subtract 8 from both sides
4x = -12
divide both sides by 4
x = -3
