What is x for negative 8(x plus 2 ) plus 5x equals negative 4

1 answer:

4 0

- 8 ( x + 2 ) + 5x = - 4

Start by distributing.....

- 8 x - 16 + 5x = - 4

Combine like terms.....

- 3 x - 16 = - 4

Add 16 to both sides.....

- 3x = 12

Divide both sides by -3 to get x by its self.....

x = - 4 is the answer

Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

4. Yes 5.No 6. No

Step-by-step explanation:

To be short,a linear equation has a coefficient of only 1 degree.

If the degree is over 1 it isn't a linear equation.

4 is the linear equation since it x value 7x has a degree of 1.

5 isn't becuase it's x value has a degree of 5

6 isn't becuase it degree is 4.
