What is 2(x + 4)=2(-8- x) - 2x

Mathematics
1 answer:
Maru [420]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

You want to solve for x, the first thing you need to do is distribute

The 2 through the x+4 then the other 2 through the -8-x

2(x+4)= 2x+8

2(-8-x)= -16-2x

2x+8=-16-2x-2x (combine like terms on the right side)

2x+8=-16-4x (now subtract 8 from each side)

2x=-24-4x (8-8=0, -16-8=-24) (now add 4x to each side)

6x=-24 (-4x+4x=0, 2x+4x=6x), (divide each side by 6)

x=-4 (6/6=1, -24/6=-4)

x=-4

Hope this helps ;)

What is 10 1/3 x 1/4? that is, what is ten and one third times one fourth?
Phantasy [73]

Answer: 31/12, or 2 7/12

Step-by-step explanation: The answer is actually very simple. All you have to do is to simplify 10 1/3 into 31/3, as 10x3+1=31. Then, you have to multiply 31/3 with 1/4. Do a simple fraction multiplication, and you get 31/12, or 2 7/12 if your teacher is asking for a mixed number. Sometimes simplifying is better
