Since it is an equality that means the left side of the equation (x/8) has to be equal to the right side of the equation (28/32). One way you can solve for x is to isolate it. Since it’s an equality like we said you have to do to the left side the same that you would do to the right side to isolate x. So if I multiply by 8 on the left I need to also multiply by 8 on the right. So 8* (x/8) becomes just x since 8x/8 becomes 8/8 * x which is 1 *x. On the right side we do 8 *(28/32) which becomes 28 * 8/32 which becomes 7. So x = 7.

I love algebra anyways
The ans is in the picture with the steps how i got it
(hope this helps can i plz have brainlist :D hehe)
Step-by-step explanation:
Mel should use the least common multiple to solve the problem
<u>Solution:</u>
Given, Mel has to put the greatest number of bolts and nuts in each box so each box has the same number of bolts and the same number of nuts.
We have to find that should Mel use the greatest common factor or the least common multiple to solve the problem?
He should use least common multiple.
Let us see an example, suppose 12 bolts and nuts are to be fit in 6 boxes.
Then, if we took H.C.F of 12 and 6, it is 6, which means 6 bolts and nuts in each box, but, after filling 2 boxes with 6 bolts and nuts, there will be nothing left, which is wrong as remaining boxes are empty.
So the remaining method to choose is L.C.M.
Hence, he should use L.C.M method.
Answer:
-7/x
Step-by-step explanation:
first, you combine the terms together to get -7x^-1. you cant have negative exponents in the numerator so you move the x^-1 to the denominator. once it move its becomes positive then.
