A variable is an unknown like x so
first we start with
x=8
then we subtract (because you must add to reverse subtraction)
x-2=8-2
x-2=6
then we divide ( because you must multiply to reverse division)
(x-2)/3=6/3
(x-2)/3=2
find x
Answer:
a=-36
Step-by-step explanation:
1/6(a+12)=-4
1) Distribute <u>1/6</u> to a and 12:
1/6a+2=-4
2) Subtract 2 from both sides:
1/6a=-6
3) Multiply both sides by the reciprocal of 1/6: (6/1)
a=-36
Let me know if you have any confusion on how I reached the solution :)
16 and 1/5 is equal to 16.2
So 19.8 subtract 16.2 is equal to 3.6
