8x3 is 24, 3x5 is 15, 8x5 is 40, 24 + 15 + 40 is 79 79x2 is 158
-7 = x/2 + 1
Subtract one from both sides
-8 = x/2
Multiply two on both sides
-16 = x
Answer, x = -16
Checking,
-7 = (-16/2) + 1
-7 = -8 + 1
-7 = -7

sorry I wanted to help you but my calculator is take out decimals sorry I don't know what to do
Answer:
The general plan is to find BM and from that CM. You need 2 equations to do that.
Step One
Set up the two equations.
(7 - BM)^2 + CM^2 = (4*sqrt(2) ) ^ 2 = 32
BM^2 + CM^2 = 5^2 = 25
Step Two
Subtract the two equations.
(7 - BM)^2 + CM^2 = 32
BM^2 + CM^2 = 25
(7 - BM)^2 - BM^2 = 7 (3)
Step three
Expand the left side of the new equation labeled (3)
49 - 14BM + BM^2 - BM^2 = 7
Step 4
Simplify And Solve
49 - 14BM = 7 Subtract 49 from both sides.
-49 - 14BM = 7 - 49
- 14BM = - 42 Divide by - 14
BM = -42 / - 14
BM = 3
Step Five
Find CM
CM^2 + BM^2 = 5^2
CM^2 + 3^2 = 5^2 Subtract 3^2 from both sides.
CM^2 = 25 - 9
CM^2 = 16 Take the square root of both sides.
sqrt(CM^2) = sqrt(16)
CM = 4 < Answer
