Hi there the answers are 3.2, 1.8, 8.6, and 17.12. Pls mark as brainliest!!!!!!
Answer:
x = 16
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that line a and b are parallel so they each have the same slope therefore, (7x + 2) = (8x - 14).
First we have so isolate a number value and x.
So we subtract 7x from 8x, which looks like:
2 = (x - 14)
Then we have to get that -14 to the other side, so we add and that looks like:
16 = x
Therefore, we have our answer, x = 16.
Subtract 100 from both sides
50x = 150 + 30x - 100
Simplify 150 + 30x - 100 to 30x + 50
Subtract 30x from both sides
50x - 30x = 50
Simplify 50x - 30x to 20x
20x = 50
Divide both sides by 20
x = 50/20
Simplify 50/20 to 5/2
<u>x = 5/2</u>
<em>In decimal: 2.5</em>
