Answer:
x = -8/2
Step-by-step explanation:
To make the equation easier to work with, our first step will be to make all of our fractions have a common denominator. Both 2 and 4 are factors of 8, so that will be our common denominator.
Old Equation: 1/4x - 1/8 = 7/8 + 1/2x
New Equation (with common denominators): 2/8x - 1/8 = 7/8 + 4/8x
Now, we're going to begin to isolate the x variable. First, we're going to subtract 2/8x from both sides, eliminating the first variable term on one side completely.
2/8x - 1/8 = 7/8 + 4/8x
-2/8x -2/8x
__________________
-1/8 = 7/8 + 2/8x
We're one step closer to our x variable being isolated. Next, we're going to move the constants to the left side of the equation. To do this, we must subtract by 7/8 on both sides.
-1/8 = 7/8 + 2/8x
- 7/8 -7/8
______________
-1 = 2/8x
Our last step is to multiply 2/8x by its reciprocal in order to get the x coefficient to be 1. This means multiply both sides by 8/2.
(8/2) -1 = 2/8x (8/2)
The 2/8 and 8/2 cancel out, and you're left with:
-8/2 = x

Distributive property.
-6x + 10
<h3>The simplified binomial is -6x + 10.</h3>
Answer:
60/120/180
Step-by-step explanation:
Either of these would work because it must be an even number divisible by 2.
It must end in a zero : divisible by 5 but even.
It must be a multiple of 30 as 3 only goes into 10s at 30. And that takes care of the 6 too.
But 4 doesn't go into 30, so 60?….
Yes, 60 is divisible between 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6
But the question does not limit your answer to one solution.
I hope this helps! :)
Yes, these are equivalent
