Answer:

If you need the equation: 10x - 12

If you need the equation more simplified: x - 1.2

Step-by-step explanation:

(2x + 7) - (8x + 5)

Move the parts of the equation around

(2x + 8x) - (7 + 5)

Add 2x and 8x together

10x - (7 + 5)

Add 7 and 5 together

10x - 12

If you need it even more simplified, continue

10x - 12

Divide by 10

x - 12/10

Simplify

x - 1.2

I Hope That This Helps! :)

What is 1/3 + 5/6 Help

gulaghasi [49]

7/6 is the right answer. First you had to add by the fractions. And it gave us, $\frac{2}{6}+ \frac{5}{6}$ . Since the denominators are equal, combine the fractions. And it gave us, $\frac{2+5}{6}$ . Finally, you had to add by the numbers, and it gave us the answer is 2+5=7, or 7/6 is the right answer. Hope this helps! And thank you for posting your question at here on brainly, and have a great day. -Charlie
