5(x + 1) - 8 = 5x(2-4)
5x + 5 - 8 = 10x - 20x
5x - 3 = -10x
= 5x - 5x - 3 = -10x - 5x
= -3 = -15x
= -3/-15 = -15x/-15
= 0.2 = X
So, in conclusion, X is equal to 0.2

Answer:

x should equal three

Step-by-step explanation:

5(x + 1) - 8 = 5x(2 - 4)

5x+1-8=5x-4

5x-7=5x-4

+7 +7

5x= 5x +3

What’s the distance between the points (-11, -16) and (20, -16)

pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

Sorry no one has answered for so long, by now you probably already answered but anyway, the answer would be 31.

Step-by-step explanation:

Because the y axes values are the same, we just need to figure out how far they are on the x axes. Which is indeed 31.

Show all work <br> Find exact value of x

Illusion [34]

Answer:

129 is x

Step-by-step explanation:

Your equation would be like this x= 45 + 6=180 (180 because the sum of the angle measures in a triangle is 180 always)

so once you add 45+6 =51 the equation is now x=51=180 so you subtract 51 from both sides so it equals as this x=51=180

x =-51= -51

x= 129

Please help me with ptomblem

Answer:

When $p^2 - 4p$ is subtracted from $p^2 + p - 6$ , the result is $5p - 6$ . To get $p - 9$ , subtract $4p + 3$ from the result.

Step-by-step explanation:

✔️Subtracting $p^2 - 4p$ from $p^2 + p - 6$ :

$(p^2 + p - 6) - (p^2 - 4p)$

$p^2 + p - 6 - p^2 + 4p$ (Distributive property)

Collect like terms

$p^2 - p^2 + p + 4p - 6$

$5p - 6$

✔️Subtracting $p - 9$ from $5p - 6$ :

$(5p - 6) - (p - 9)$

$5p - 6 - p + 9$ (distributive property)

Add like terms

$4p + 3$
