Answer:
Equation: 
Solve for n: n = 112
Step-by-step explanation:
To first set up the equation, you need to look at the verbal description and translate into numbers and operations:
'three fourths a number' = 
'plus 8' = + 8
'is' =
'20 less' = - 20
'the number' = n
Put the expressions together:
'three fourths a number plus 8': 
'20 less than the number': n - 20
Set them equal to each other and solve: 
Add 20 to both sides: 
Subtract
from both sides: 
Multiply both sides by
: 
Solve for n: n = 112
Answer:
d
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Let x = 1
LHS: -4(1)+(-2)=-4+(-2)=-6
RHS:3(1)+(-5)=3+(-5)=-2
Therefore -4x+(-2) is not equal to 3x+(-5)
