8. What is the solution to the equation 3x + 5(4x-6)-8= 3x - 14? a. x = 1 b. r = 1.7 d. There are no solutions to this equation.
1 answer:
3x+5(4x-6)-8=3x-14
Step-by-step explanation:
Cancel out the terms on both sides of the equation. (3x)
5(4x-6)-8=-14
Distribute 5 through the parentheses.
20x-30-8=-14
Calculate the difference.
20x-38=-14
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign.
20x=-14+28
Calculate the sum.
20x=24
Divide both sides of the equation by 20.
x=6/5, 1.2, or 1 1/5
Answer:
x=6/5, 1.2, or 1 1/5
