Here's how to find the value of x:
<span>9 - 0.75 ( x + 8 ) - 5 = -6.5 find the difference of 9 - 0.75
</span><span>8.25 ( x + 8 ) - 5 = -6.5 add 5 to both sides
</span>
8.25 ( x + 8 ) = -1.5 distribute 8.25 to x and 8
8.25x + 66 = -1.5 subtract 66 from both sides
8.25x = -67.5 divide both sides by 8.25
x = 18.18181818...... the value of x is 18 2/11
hope this helps
Give me the points thanks
Answer:
86
Step-by-step explanation:
let four consecutive integers: n , n+1 , n+2 , n+3
n + n+1 + n+2 + n+3 = 342
4n + 6 = 342
4n + 6 - 6 = 342 - 6
4n = 336
divid by : 4
n = 84
but the third term is : n +2 so : 84+2 = 86
