Can someone help me figure this out? -2(x+8)=6x+8

Mathematics
1 answer:
Lemur [1.5K]4 years ago
4 0

Answer:

x = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

First, distribute:

-2x - 16 = 6x + 8

Then, switch the numbers to one side, and switch the variables to another:

-2x - 6x = 8 + 16

Then, simplify:

-8x = 24

Finally, divide -8 on both sides:

We got x = -3

And we're done!

Write an augmented matrix for the following system of equations
chubhunter [2.5K]
Just use the coefficients for each variable and put it in a matrix. Is the second question set equal to something? Because then you would put it in place as the question mark. (Did the pic come through?)
So the 3x3 matrix is made up of the coefficients and then to augment the matrix, you add another column at the end with the solutions. Good luck!

Please help thx a bunch

A.
2/3A=-24
time both sides by 3/2
A=-72/2
A=-36

B.
20=-B/0.2
times both sides by 0.2
4=-B
times -1
-4=B


distance between 2 points x and y is |x-y|

so
distance between A and B is distance between -4 and -72 or
|-72-(-4)|=|-72+4|=|-68|=68
the distance is 68
