X/8 + 12 = 16
start by subtracting twelve from both sides
x/8 + 12 = 16
- 12 -12
You're left with x/8 = 4
Multiply both sides by 8
8× x/8 = 4 ×8
Your answer is x = 32
If you need to simplify, the answer is 2.
5/6 is 1/6 more than 4/6. All you had to do is subtract 4/6 from 5/6 to get <u><em>1/6</em></u>.
3x-11=x+23
-x -x
2x-11=23
+11 +11
2x=34
x=17
3(17)-11 17+23
=40 =40
explanation ;
you would equal them because they are congruent . & you substitute x for 17 in each equation to find out the degrees of both of the angles :)
Answer:12 Protein bar and 3 magazines
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Tom purchases Protein bars 3 times as much as magazine
Each bar cost 
Each magazine costs 
Sales tax is 6.5 %
suppose Tom buy x magazines so
Price of magazine is 
Price of bars is 
Total Price
After sales tax 
This must be less than 
so 
thus 
so he but 4 magazines and 12 protein bars
6(2x-8y=-24)
-2 (6x+4y=68)
12x-48y=-144
-12x-8y=-136
-56y=-280
-280÷-56=5
y=5
2x-8 (5)=-24
2x-40=-24
+40. +40
2x=16
16÷2=8
×=8
y=5
x=8
