Answer: x=1/2

she was wrong, it's supposed to be

Step-by-step explanation: 8(x−3)+7=2x(4−17)

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

8(x−3)+7=2x(4−17)

(8)(x)+(8)(−3)+7=2x(4−17)(Distribute)

8x+−24+7=−26x

(8x)+(−24+7)=−26x(Combine Like Terms)

8x+−17=−26x

8x−17=−26x

Step 2: Add 26x to both sides.

8x−17+26x=−26x+26x

34x−17=0

Step 3: Add 17 to both sides.

34x−17+17=0+17

34x=17

Step 4: Divide both sides by 34.

34x/34=17/34 x=1/2

Derek says that the quotient of -2/7 divided by -2/21 is -1/3. Part A: What is the correct quotient? Part B: What mistake did De

Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

The correct quotient is 3.

I think Derek has mistaken to divide $-\frac{2}{21}$ by $\frac{2}{7}$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to check the quotient of $(-\frac{2}{7}) \textrm{ divided by }(-\frac{2}{21})$ .

Part A:

Now, $(-\frac{2}{7}) \textrm{ divided by }(-\frac{2}{21})$ .

= $\frac{-\frac{2}{7} }{-\frac{2}{21} } =3$

So, the correct quotient is 3.

Part B:

Derek says that the quotient is $-\frac{1}{3}$ .

So, I think Derek has mistaken to divide $-\frac{2}{21}$ by $\frac{2}{7}$ . (Answer)
