Question

4.5-17 - X 8I need help! 10 pts​

Answer 1

Answer:

x = -1.5625

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x:

-8 x - 12.5 = 0

Add 12.5` to both sides:

(12.5 - 12.5) - 8 x = 12.5

12.5 - 12.5 = 0:

-8 x = 12.5

Divide both sides of -8 x = 12.5 by -8:

(-8 x)/(-8) = 12.5/(-8)

(-8)/(-8) = 1:

x = 12.5/(-8)

12.5/(-8) = -1.5625:

Answer: x = -1.5625
