I would say your answer is FALSE
b) -4
- 8x +4 =36
First, we subtract 4 from 36 to get 32
36-4=32
-8x=32
Since a negative times a negative equals a positive, then the answer has to be negative because 36 is positive.
32 divided by 8 = 4
B) -4
-6/7 = -x/84
84/7 = 12
12(-6) = -72
x = -72
So, -6/7 = -72/84 because -72/84 simplifies to -6/7
Replace u,x and y withyour values
u+xy=2+9*6=2+54=56
<span>9a + -3(2a + -4) = 15
Reorder the terms:
9a + -3(-4 + 2a) = 15
9a + (-4 * -3 + 2a * -3) = 15
9a + (12 + -6a) = 15
Reorder the terms:
12 + 9a + -6a = 15
Combine like terms: 9a + -6a = 3a
12 + 3a = 15
Solving
12 + 3a = 15
Solving for variable 'a'.
Move all terms containing a to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-12' to each side of the equation.
12 + -12 + 3a = 15 + -12
Combine like terms: 12 + -12 = 0
0 + 3a = 15 + -12
3a = 15 + -12
Combine like terms: 15 + -12 = 3
3a = 3
Divide each side by '3'.
a = 1
Simplifying
a = 1</span>
