Answer:

x=5

Step-by-step explanation:

7 (x-8)=2x-31

Distribute the 7 to the x and -8 (basically multiple 7 with the x and -8)

7x-56=2x -31

Drag the 2x over to the other subtracting it from 7x.

7x-2x-56=-31

5x-56=-31

Drag the 56 to the other side and add it to -31

5x= -31+56 (or 56-31)

5x= 25

Divide 5x from 25 to get your X

x=25/5

x=5

Hope this helps!!

Can Someone Help with This Distributive Property Math Question : <br> 1. - ( 8x - 12 )

Strike441 [17]

Answer:

-8x+12

Step-by-step explanation:

1. You need to distribute the (-1) from outside the bracket onto all the terms in the bracket, which includes (8x) and (-12). If there is a minus outside the bracket and one minus in the bracket, the operation would be a plus and vice versa. If there is a minus outside the bracket and one plus in the bracket, the operation would be a minus and vice versa.

- (8x - 12) = (-1) × (8x) + (-1) × (-12)

= -8x + (+12)

= -8x + 12
