<u>Answer:</u>
32 students
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
We are given that at the beginning of a class period, half of the students in a class go to the library and half of the remaining to the computer lab.
Given that there are 8 students remaining, we are to find the total number of students in the class initially.
At beginning = 
students
After half of them leave = 
students
After half of the remaining leave = 
students
So, 
x = 32
Therefore, there were 32 students in the class originally.
Answer:
<span>−84</span>
Explanation:
Let x be the unknown number.
From the queston we can form the equation
<span><span>x<span>(−7)</span></span>−2=10</span>
Move <span>−2</span> to the right hand side
<span><span><span>x<span>(−7)</span></span>=10+2</span><span><span>x<span>(−7)</span></span>=12</span></span>
Multiply both sides by <span>−7</span> to get the unkonwn no.
<span><span><span>−7</span>⋅<span>x<span>(−7)</span></span>=12⋅<span>(−7)</span></span><span>
x=−84</span></span>
