You have to keep order of operations in mind.
1. Take care of the parentheses; distribute.
-3+6x-3=-20-8x
Simplified: 6x-6=-20-8x
2. Isolate the x variable.
Add 8x to both sides and add 6 to both sides.
14x=-14
3. Solve for x.
Divide by 14 on both sides.
x=-1

Answer:
19
Step-by-step explanation:
After x days, the boy will have read 10x. If this is less than 192, we have ...
10x < 192
x < 192/10
x < 19.2
If x is an integer, the largest possible value x could have is 19.

Answer:
(-2, 1)
Step-by-step explanation:
Rotating a point 180° about the origin in either direction is equivalent to reflecting it across the origin. The effect is to negate both coordinates.
(x, y) ⇒ (-x, -y) . . . . . rotation 180°
(2, -1) ⇒ (-2, 1) . . . . . P' rotated 180° from P
The coordinates of the rotated point are (-2, 1).
Sorry is this some sort of equation I’m confused
