Answer:

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

2/3=8/x+6

Using cross products

2 * (x+6) = 3*8

2(x+6) = 24

Divide by 2

x+6 =12

Subtract 6

x = 6

Answer:

x = -3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve for x, we simply need to isolate x in the equation using properties of equations.  For this equation, we will use addition and multiplication properties.

(2/3) = (8/x) + 6

(2/3) + -6 = (8/x) + 6 + -6

(2/3) + -6 = (8/x)

(1/8) * [(2/3) + -6] = (8/x) * (1/8)

(1/8) * [(2/3) + -6] = (1/x)

(1/8) * [(2/3) + (-18/3)] = (1/x)

(1/8) * [-16/3] = (1/x)

(1 * -16) / (3 * 8) = (1/x)

(-2/3) = (1/x)

x * (-2/3) = (1/x) * x

(-2x/3) = 1

(-3/2) * (-2x/3) = 1 * (-3/2)

x = (-3/2)

x = -3/2

Cheers.

TO ANY MATH GEOMETRY GENIUS HELP ME OUT PLS
mr Goodwill [35]

Answer:

The answer is A

Step-by-step explanation:

since JHG = 65, then the other two angles added together = 65. Therefore, I can just add what the two smaller angles are to equal 65. Solve for x, then plug x into one of the equations! JHI = 19, and GHI = 46

A necklace regularly sells for $18.00. the store advertises a 15% discount. what is the sale price of the necklace in dollars
SSSSS [86.1K]
I can solve with 2 methods:

I. Because the discount is 15 % of 18 $ , the price will be (100-15=85) 85 % of 18 $
18*85/100= 15,3 $ ( the sale price)

II. The discount is 15 % of 18$
15*18/100= 2,7$  ( the discount)
then I decrease it from the regularly price
18$-2,7$=15,3 $ (the sale price)

Personally I believe the first is an easier method.
I hope you understand and you can apply this in every similary problem.
