You must distribute first.
8 times (3x-2)= 24x-16
2 times (12x-5.5)= 24x-11
What you have left is
(24x-16)-(24x-11)
24x-24x=0
-16- -11=-5
The answer is -5
5x + 4 = 7x
Subtract 4 from both sides.
5x = 7x - 4
Subtract 7x from both sides.
5x - 7x = -4
Simplify.
-2x = -4
Divide both sides by -2.
x = 4/2
x = 2

Hi, I was able to find the full context for this one from another source:
<span>"Juanita has a storage closet at her shop with extra bottles of lotion and shower gel. Some are scented and some are unscented. If she reaches into the closet and grabs a bottle without looking, she has a 42% chance of grabbing a bottle of shower gel."
For the "shower gel" and "scented" to be independent given the situation above, we need to show that P(A | B) = P(A). You can get this equation from the definition of "independence" where P(A </span>∩ B) = P(A)*P(B) and the formula for conditional probability P(A | B).
We only have the given P(shower gel) = 42% therefore the event "shower gel" must be the variable A.
ANSWER: To show independence of the two events, P(shower gel | scented) = 42% must be true.
