If you were to make both x's equivalent, you'd have to multiply the first equation by 2 to get rid of the coefficient, 1/2. However, you'd have to multiply 2 onto -8 as well, therefore the equation would turn into x - 16 = 18. That is not equivalent to x - 8 = 18.

What is the value of x

VashaNatasha [74]

Answer:

x = 40

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the Supplementary Angles Theorem, set 4x - 20 and x equal to 180. Once done, combine like-terms to get 5x - 20 = 180. So, straight off the bat, we know that 5x has to equal 200 [bringing 20 over to the right side of the equivalence symbol], therefore 40 is equal to x.
