Step by step explanation: Rearrange terms -6x+7(-x+1)=4(x-4) Distribute -6x - 7x + 7 = - 4(x-4) Combine like terms: −13+7=−4(−4) Distribute: −13+7=−4+16 Subtract 7 from both sides of the equation −13+7−7=−4+16−7 Simplify −13=−4+9 Add 4x to both sides of the equation −13+4=−4+9+4 Simplify Combine like terms Combine like terms −9=9 Divide both sides of the equation by the same term 9x/-9 = 9/-9 Simplify X= -1
The nurse will be able to see 38,4 patients in a 8-hour period, but because it's patients we are talking about, living things which can't be represented in decimal form, the nurse will be able to see approximately 38 patients in a 8-hour period.
