Answer:
B. x = -8
Step-by-step explanation:
-4(2x + 3) = 2x + 6 - (8x + 2)
-8x -12 = 2x + 6 - 8x -2
(now, "-8" in both terms is cancelled):
-12 = 2x + 6 - 2
(leave 2x alone in second term):
-12 -6 +2 = 2x
-16 = 2x
-16/2 = x
-8 = x
4/2 forms a proportion because it can be simplified further into 2.
20/6 forms a proportion because it can be simplified to 10/3
The answer to your question is 40.5 units.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
I can't read it very well. If it says
5(6n-4)+2=68
30n-20+2=68
30n=86
n= 43/15 or 2 13/15
If it says
5(6n-4)-2=68
30n-20-2=68
30n=90
n= 3
