So when you're solving for x here and distribute 8 on the right side, it would look like this:

Now in order to solve for x, we know we have to get all the x's on one side of the equal sign. Let's get all our x's to the left side. Since the right side has a positive 8x, you need to subtract 8x on the right. But whatever you do to one side you must do to the other. So since we are subtracting 8x on the right, we need to do that on the left.
But we can't! Since both sides will cancel out to zero before x can be solved.
Therefore the answer is 0.
Hope that helps!
"log" standing alone actually means "logarithm to the base 10."
Thus, y = log x <=> y = log x
10
y
Stated another way (inverse functions), x = 10
Expand by multiplying out:
14-15t + 36 = 1 -20t -1,
Because of the minus before the bracket, it changes the sign inside the bracket
-15t + 20t = 1-1-14-36 Rearranging the ts on one side and the numbers on other
side.
5t = -50 Divide both sides by 5.
t = -50/5
t = -10.
x + 1

3x+2 I 3x² +5x -3

----------
3x -3
3x+2

-5 is the remainder
The question is somewhat confusing but assuming you mean where the submarine is after moving up 7 meters then down 38 meters the submarine would now be located 56 meters below sea level
