You have to keep order of operations in mind.
1. Take care of the parentheses; distribute.
-3+6x-3=-20-8x
Simplified: 6x-6=-20-8x
2. Isolate the x variable.
Add 8x to both sides and add 6 to both sides.
14x=-14
3. Solve for x.
Divide by 14 on both sides.
x=-1
Answer:
b / (b - 8)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that :
Litres of water held by bucket = b
Jar holds 8 litres fewer than bucket; hence, litres held by jar = b - 8
The number of times bucket can hold than jar is :
Litres held by bucket / litres held by jar
b / (b - 8)
A came to C, C was supposed to go to A
