Answer: Multiplying and Dividing Decimals by Powers of 10
When you divide a decimal by a power of 10, simply move the decimal place to the left as many places as there are 0s in the power of 10.
Let Lynette has originally candies in hand = x
She gave half to her son means x/2 given to son.
2 candies gave to daughter and left with 4.
x - x/2 - 2 = 4
adding 2 both sides
x - x/2 - 2 + 2 = 4 + 2
x - x/2 = 6
x /2 = 6
x = 12
Means she have 12 candies originally : Answer

Answer:
A.) 1
Step-by-step explanation:
First change the equation to 2 + ( - 8x ) = -6 so it’s easier to read
Take away 2 from both sides
So now you have -8x = -8
Divide both sides by -8 so you get positive x and 1
x = 1
