8 0

Step-by-step explanation:

x + 6 = 2x - 8

1. Subtract 2x from both sides

x - 2x + 6 = 2x - 2x - 8

2. Simplify

-x + 6 = -8

3. Now, subtract 6 from both sides

-x + 6 - 6 = -8 - 6

4. Simplify

-x = -14

5. Divide both sides by -1 because you would want the x by itself instead of having -x

-1x/-1 = -14/-1

6. Simplify

x = 14 <------ Answer

Answer:

n = 36

Step-by-step explanation:

The opposite sides of a parallelogram are congruent , that is

AB = DC , substitute values

$\frac{2}{3}$ n - 5 = $\frac{1}{3}$ n + 7 ( multiply through by 3 to clear the fractions )

2n - 15 = n + 21 ( subtract n from both sides )

n - 15 = 21 ( add 15 to both sides )

n = 36
