Solve 8(x+2)=36.......

brilliants [131]

We have to use the Distributive Property in this equation.
By the Distributive Property,
$8(x+2)=36
$
becomes
$8x+16=36.$
Now we need to isolate x. Remember PEMDAS?
$8x=20$
$x=20/8$
Simplify the right side.
$x=10/4$
$x=5/2$

What's the answer -5+ 8x - 9 = 3x+3)

Vika [28.1K]

We collect like terms
8x - 3x = 3 + 5 + 9
This is bcos if a (-) sign crosses the equals sign it becomes a (+), and if a (+) sign crosses the equals sign it becomes (-)
We the have
5x = 17
Divide both sides by 5
x = 17/5
x = 3.4
