Answer:
x = -8/2
Step-by-step explanation:
To make the equation easier to work with, our first step will be to make all of our fractions have a common denominator. Both 2 and 4 are factors of 8, so that will be our common denominator.
Old Equation: 1/4x - 1/8 = 7/8 + 1/2x
New Equation (with common denominators): 2/8x - 1/8 = 7/8 + 4/8x
Now, we're going to begin to isolate the x variable. First, we're going to subtract 2/8x from both sides, eliminating the first variable term on one side completely.
2/8x - 1/8 = 7/8 + 4/8x
-2/8x -2/8x
__________________
-1/8 = 7/8 + 2/8x
We're one step closer to our x variable being isolated. Next, we're going to move the constants to the left side of the equation. To do this, we must subtract by 7/8 on both sides.
-1/8 = 7/8 + 2/8x
- 7/8 -7/8
______________
-1 = 2/8x
Our last step is to multiply 2/8x by its reciprocal in order to get the x coefficient to be 1. This means multiply both sides by 8/2.
(8/2) -1 = 2/8x (8/2)
The 2/8 and 8/2 cancel out, and you're left with:
-8/2 = x

Answer:
D (32, 10)
Step-by-step explanation:
30 - 5 - 5 - 5 - 5 = 10
0 + 8 + 8 + 8 + 8 = 32
Answer:
y = -14/3x + 43/3
Step-by-step explanation:
y2 - y1 / x2 - x1
5 - (-9) / 2 - 5
14 / -3
- 14/3
y = -14/3x + b
5 = -14/3(2) + b
5 = -28/3 + b
43/3 = b
y = -14/3x + 43/3
