8 0

Answer: x=7

Step-by-step explanation:

8 + 4 = 2(x - 1)  combine like terms on the left  side  

12 = 2(x -1)    Distribute on the right side

12 = 2x - 2      Add 2 to both sides

+2         +2

14 = 2x     Divide both sides by 2

x= 7

The sum of two integers is -8.if one integer is 12 then the other is?
jeka57 [31]

Answer:

2 and -10

Step-by-step explanation:

let the two integers be x and y.

so, x+y=-8---‐-------(1)

and,

x=y+12-------‐-----(2)

from (1) and (2),

(y+12)+y=-8

or, 2y=-8-12

or, y=-20/2

or, y=-10

substitutting the value of y in (2),

x=-10+12=2

therefore the required integers are 2 and -10.
