Answer:
16 units
Step-by-step explanation:
6.1 + 5.8 + 4.1 = 16
Let's try plugging in some negative numbers. Let's do x=-1. 5+-1=4. So we know that if we put in a negative number for x, then n will be positive. But what if we do a number greater than -5, because 5+-5=0. So let's try x=-6. So 5+(-6)=-1. Hmm. So here it is. We know that any number under -5 will be positive and any number above -5 will be negative.
All we need to do is plug the numbers into the equation.
A:

Not A.
B:

Not B.
C:

C is the correct answer
A sequence of operations that will get you to the solution is ...
... d. multiply each side by-5, add 25 to each side
_____
That is not the only correct sequence of operations. However the other ones listed here are incorrect ways to get to x = -10.
You can do whatever multiplication and addition you like to each side of the equation, but if those operations are poorly chosen, they will make finding the solution more difficult.
Answer:
answer y=x-4
Step-by-step explanation:
slope intercept from is y=mx+b
m=slope b=y intercept
convert current equation to slope intercept
y-4=x-8
add 4 to both sides
y=-x-4
