-8x + 14 = -2(4x - 7) what is the value of x

Mathematics

Vikentia [17]4 years ago

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

-8x + 14 = -2(4x - 7)

use the distributive property to get rid of the parentheses (-2 x 4x and -2 x -7) (negative times negative equals positive)

-8x + 14 = -4x + 14

subtract 14 on both sides to cancel out 14

-8x is not equal to -4x

although this may seem like a weird answer, if x is the same variable (pretend it's one) 1 multiplied with -8 will not equal 1 multiplied with -4

Answer:

all real numbers

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

- 8x + 14 = - 2(4x - 7) ← distribute parenthesis

- 8x + 14 = - 8x + 14

Since both sides are equal, then any real value of x is a solution of the equation.

Omari buys a computer for $1,083. She
Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

6 months.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the answer, we first need to find out how much Omari paid for the down payment. To find this, you multiply 1083*0.20 and you get $216.60. So we subtract the down payment from the total leaving us with $866.40. Now to find out how many months it would take Omari to pay, we divide 866.40/144.40 since each month she pays $144.40 a month. Once you divide 866.40/144.40, you are left with an answer of 6 months.
