You have to start by using the distributive property. So you take the number next to the parentheses which is “8” and you multiply it with “2x”. This gives you “16x”. Then you multiply “8” with “3” and that gives you “24”. You now have the equation “16x + 24 = 48”.
The next step is to subtract “24” with “48”. This leaves you with “24”. Then you now have “16x = 24” as your new equation. The last step is to divide “16x” with “16”, this cancels it out with itself. Then you divide “24” with “16” and you get 1.5. So “X” equals 1.5 or you can convert it into a fraction witch gives you “3/4”.

Hope this helps :) have a good day!
Well to solve this firstly we should calculate her average speed while she was going to work. Which comes out to be 45 miles per hour.
Now if her average speed while going home is half as fast as while coming to work was, the answer would be 22.5 miles per hour. So the average speed for the total journey would be the average for these two values. As the distance was same for both the journeys we can simply do 45 + 22.5 / 2 = 33.75 mph.
The 3rd option okkkkkkkk?
The other number if the average of two numbers is 41 and one is 27 is 55
<h3>How to calculate the average of numbers?</h3>
Average of number is also known as the mean.
Let the unknown number be "x" such that:
x +27/2 = 41
Determine the value of x
x + 27 = 2(41)
x + 27 = 82
x = 82 - 27
x = 55
Hence the other number if the average of two numbers is 41 and one is 27 is 55
