Half = 0.5
x-the number
<span>Ten times the sum of half a number and 6 is 8:
10 · (0.5x + 6) = 8 |use distributive property: a(b + c) = ab + ac
5x + 60 = 8 |subtract 60 from both sides
5x = -52 |divide both sides by 5
<span>x = -10.4</span></span>
You subtract “260-178” and then you’ll get your answer i’m pretty sure
The second option is correct!
