The value of the variable x in the equation –x + 8 + 3x = x – 6 is - 14.
<h3>How to find variable in an equation?</h3>
The variables of an equation can be found as follows:
–x + 8 + 3x = x – 6
The variable in the equation is x.
Therefore,
–x + 8 + 3x = x – 6
combine like terms on the left side
-x + 3x + 8 = x - 6
2x + 8 = x - 6
subtract x form both sides of the equation
2x - x + 8 = - 6
x + 8 = -6
subtract 8 from both sides
x = -6 - 8
x = - 14

IT would be 7
hope this helps!
The next correct step would be to open the absolute value signs. To do so, the equation would need to be put equal to two values wich both need to be solved to find the correct answers.
Equation 1: x-5=3
Equation 2: x-5=-3
The answers would be x=8 and x=2.
Answer:
d) $8,100
Step-by-step explanation:
Given information:
- Money triples every 10 years
- Initial deposit = $100
- Number of years invested = 40 years
If the money triples (multiplies by 3) every 10 years,
then in 40 years time it will triple <u>4 times</u>, as 40 ÷ 10 = 4
⇒ Account balance after 40 years = $100 × 3 × 3 × 3 × 3
= $100 × 3⁴
= $8,100
<u>Proof</u>
In 10 years time the balance of the account will be:
$100 x 3 = $300
In another 10 years time, the balance of the account will be:
$300 x 3 = $900
In another 10 years time, the balance of the account will be:
$900 x 3 = $2700
In another 10 years time, the balance of the account will be:
$2700 x 3 = $8100
