Answer:

<h3>x=2</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

2(4x + 1) = 18

Reorder the terms:

2(1 + 4x) = 18

(1 * 2 + 4x * 2) = 18

(2 + 8x) = 18

Solving

2 + 8x = 18

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-2' to each side of the equation.

2 + -2 + 8x = 18 + -2

Combine like terms: 2 + -2 = 0

0 + 8x = 18 + -2

8x = 18 + -2

Combine like terms: 18 + -2 = 16

8x = 16

Divide each side by '8'.

x = 2

Simplifying

x = 2

8x - 2 = 18
8x = 20
x = 2.5

Last Question

Because this may not be the question you want, I'll omit the first step which should be done with latex. The key to all of these except C is to invert the second fraction (turn the second fraction upside down) and multiply.

A

\dfrac{6}{5} * \dfrac{-2}{3}

=(6*-2) / (5*3) = - 12/15 = -4/5

B

\dfrac{7}{4} *\dfrac{5}{3}

= (7*5) / (4*3) = 35 / 12 = 2 11/12

C

Impossible to do 4/0 cannot be done.

D

\dfrac{-2}{3} /\dfrac{-5}{4}=\dfrac{-2}{3} *\dfrac{-4}{5}

= (-2*-4)/(3*5) =

8/15
