Answer: x = 21

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

8x−2=6+10(x−5)

8x+−2=6+(10)(x)+(10)(−5)(Distribute)

8x+−2=6+10x+−50

8x−2=(10x)+(6+−50)(Combine Like Terms)

8x−2=10x+−44

8x−2=10x−44

Step 2: Subtract 10x from both sides.

8x−2−10x=10x−44−10x

−2x−2=−44

Step 3: Add 2 to both sides.

−2x−2+2=−44+2

−2x=−42

Step 4: Divide both sides by -2.

−2x / -2 = -42 / -2

x=21

Answer:

x = 21

Step-by-step explanation:

8x - 2 = 6 + 10(x - 5)

Step 1: Distribute the right side of the equation ("6 + 10(x - 5)") so it'll be easier to find x.

8x - 2 = 6 + 10x - 50

8x - 2 = 10x - 44

Step 2: Subtract 8x from both sides

8x - 2 = 10x - 44

<u>-8x         -8x</u>

-2 = 2x - 44

Step 3: Add 44 to both sides to get 2x alone.

-2 = 2x - 44

<u>+44       +44</u>

42 = 2x

Step 4: Divide both sides by 2 to get x alone

<u>42</u> = <u>2x</u>

2      2

x = 21

julsineya [31]
The answer would be A because if the player starts on the 20 yard line and gains 9 yards, that would be 20+9= 29. Then it says the player loses 4 yards which would make it 29-4= 25 then it says the referee takes the penalty away which then makes it 29 again. If you do the math for A it comes out to be 29.
