2(3x - 1) + 2(4x + 5) = 8

Distribute the 2's inside their respective parentheses.

6x - 2 + 8x + 10 = 8

Combine like terms (6x + 8x) and (-2 + 10).

14x + 8 = 8

Subtract 8 from both sides.

14x = 0

Divide both sides by 14.

$\boxed {x=0}$

Answer:

$\large\boxed{D.\ \dfrac{8}{9}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\text{We know:}\\\\P(A|B)=\dfrac{P(A\ \cap\ B)}{P(B)}\\\\\text{We have:}\\\\P(A\ \cap\ B)=\dfrac{2}{3},\ P(B)=\dfrac{3}{4}.\\\\\text{Substitute:}\\\\P(A|B)=\dfrac{\frac{2}{3}}{\frac{3}{4}}=\dfrac{2}{3}:\dfrac{3}{4}=\dfrac{2}{3}\cdot\dfrac{4}{3}=\dfrac{8}{9}$
