Hey!
The first step to solving this equation would be to subtract 5 from both sides of the equation.
<em>Original Equation :</em>

- 8x + 16 = 5
<em>New Equation {Added Subtract 5 to Both Sides} :</em>

- 8x + 16 - 5 = 5 - 5
Now we solve our new equation.
<em>Old Equation :</em>

- 8x + 16 - 5 = 5 - 5
<em>Solution {Old Equation Solved} :</em>

- 8x + 11 = 0
The next step would be to solve with the quadratic formula.
<em>Quadratic Equation ( 1 ) :</em>

<em>Quadratic Equation ( 1 ) {Solved} :</em>
4 +

<em>Quadratic Equation ( 2 ) :</em>

<em>Quadratic Equation ( 2 ) {Solved} :</em>
4 -

<em>So, our final solutions for the equation

- 8x + 16 = 5 are...</em>
x = 4 + 
<em>and </em>
x = 4 - 
Hope this helps!

Answer:
9c4+27 is what I got from solving
32x + 53 = 501
-53 - 53
<u>32x</u> = <u>448</u>
32 32
x = 14
Work out 50 billion divided by 365
Then divide that by 24
and the answer should be 5707762.55708
Therefore per hour the company makes $5,707,762.56
