X+8=-2 I think its -10 but plz verify
Yakvenalex [24]

Isolate the x. Note the equal sign. What you do to one side, you do to the other.

Subtract 8 from both sides

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

x = -2 - 8

Combine

x = -10

-10 is your answer for x

hope this helps

Subtract (5y3 + 6y + 3y4) from (4y4 - 8y3). With step by step work***
cupoosta [38]

  4y⁴ - 8y³ - (5y³ + 6y + 3y⁴)

= 4y⁴ - 8y³ - 5y³ - 6y - 3y⁴

= (4y⁴  - 3y⁴) + (- 8y³ - 5y³) - 6y

= y⁴ - 13y³ - 6y

Answer:  y⁴ - 13y³ - 6y
