X/8 - 10 = x/3
bring the values with the variable on one side
x/3 - x/8 = 10
find a common denominator and subtract these fractions
8x/24 - 3x/24 = -10
now subtract fractions
8x - 3x = 5x
5x/24 = -10
multiply both sides by 24
5x = -240
divide both sides by 5
x = -48
the number is -48
Answer:
-20 < 4 - 2x (subtract 4 from both sides)
-24 < -2x (divide each side by -2)
12> x (when you divide by a negative number, the inequality flips)
x< 12 ( I always put it so x is first)
so the answer is C
You’re correct answer would be : 14 lmk if this is correct if not I’m so SORRY
