Well, he used one box to decorate his yard, that's for sure. Then he used 40 from the other box to decorate his porch and the rest inside his house. That rest might be anything between 1 and infinity. So there were at least 41 balloons in each box. I think the question is incomplete, please doublecheck it so I'll be able to give you more specific result.

How do I solve this equation for x?

lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

The answer is x = -32

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the value of x, e must first distribute the 6 into the parenthesis.

6(x - 7) = 8x + 22

6x - 42 = 8x + 22

Now we will add/subtract values so that all x values are on the right and all number values are on the left.

6x - 42 = 8x + 22

-42 = 2x + 22

-64 = 2x

Now to get the final answer, divide both sides by 2.

-32 = x
