Solve the equation. Isolate the variable, x.
Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other.
First, subtract 8 and 10x from both sides:
2x (-10x) + 8 (-8) = 12 (-8) + 10x (-10x)
2x - 10x = 12 - 8
Simplify. Combine like terms:
(2x - 10x) = (12 - 8)
-8x = 4
Isolate the variable, x. Divide -8 from both sides:
(-8x)/-8 = (4)/-8
x = -(4/8)
Simplify:
x = -1/2
-1/2 is your answer for x.

Answer:
-43
Step-by-step explanation:
So first things first you will multiply -9 by 4 and that gives you -36, Next you will add -7 to -36 which gives you -43.

Hope this helps :D
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
If we assume that the angle at A is 90 degrees.. which it does seem like it would be. then use that the sum of the angles around the inside of a right triagle is 180 . so you have
180 = 37 + 90 + x
53° = x
does that help?
Ok so this question:
y + 1 = - ( x - 2 ) (distribute the negative inside the parenthesis)
y + 1 = -x + 2 (substitute the y= -1)
-1 + 1 = -x + 2
0 = -x + 2 (take two to the other side)
-2 = -x (divide the negative away from x)
2 = x
