Answer is 4 :) I hope it help you.
The values of x are -22 and -2 and there are not extraneous solutions
<h3>How to solve the equation?</h3>
The equation is given as:
2|x + 7|= x - 8
Expand the absolute bracket
|2x + 14|= x - 8
Remove the absolute bracket
2x + 14 = x - 8 and 2x + 14 = -x + 8
Evaluate the like terms
x = -22 and 3x = -6
This gives
x = -22 and x = -2
Hence, the values of x are -22 and -2 and there are not extraneous solutions

Answer:
a. There are 48 angelfish.
b. There are 36 goldfish.
Step-by-step explanation:
the ration of clownfish to angelfish is 5:4 and there are 60 clownfish.
60:? 5x=60 x=12 12(4)=48
60:48 there are 48 angelfish
the ration of angelfish to goldfish is 4:3 and know we know there are 48 angelfish
48:? 4x=48 x=12 12(3)=36
48:36 there are 36 goldfish
Its b, no matter what, he has to pay 18 dollars which effects the y intercept
