Answer:

−38

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

−(6x+8)=4(17−x)

−6x+−8=(4)(17)+(4)(−x)(Distribute)

−6x+−8=68+−4x

−6x−8=−4x+68

Step 2: Add 4x to both sides.

−6x−8+4x=−4x+68+4x

−2x−8=68

Step 3: Add 8 to both sides.

−2x−8+8=68+8

−2x=76

Step 4: Divide both sides by -2.

−2x−2=76−2

x=−38

Answer: d, eight and fifty-three thousandths

Step-by-step explanation:

The number before the decimal place in the units column is a whole number (8).

The numbers after (.053) are thousandths because the whole number (8.053) consists of 4 numbers the same way a 1000 does.

Sorry I found the last bit harder to put into words, but I hope it helps :)

​−8x+4y=24<br> ​−7x+7y=28<br> ​​ What is the solution?
SVETLANKA909090 [29]
​−8x + 4y = 24 -- (1)
​−7x + 7y = 28 -- (2)

Eqn (1) & (2) are simplified as

y - 2x = 6 -- (3)
y - x = 4 -- (4)

By making y the subject of formula in (4), we have

y = x + 4 -- (5)

Substitute x + 4 for y in (3), then

x + 4 - 2x = 6
x - 2x = 6 - 4
- x = 2
x = - 2.

Substitute - 2 for x in (5), then

y = - 2 + 4
y = 2.

Therefore, (x, y) = (- 2, 2) ...Ans.
