Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

½(x-2) = 8 + 5x

Multiply both sides by 2

2⋅½(x-2) = 2(8 + 5x)

1(x-2) = 2(8 + 5x)

Apply the distributive rule

x - 2 = 16 + 10x

Subtract x from both sides

-2 = 16 + 9x

Subtract 16 from both sides

-18 = 9x

Divide both sides by the coefficient of x

-18 ÷ 9 = 9x ÷ 9

-2 = x

What is the product ?

Olenka [21]

Answer:

The answer to your question is:

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{x^{2}-16 }{2x + 4} \frac{x^{3}-2x^{2} + x }{x^{2}+ 3x - 4}$

Factorize $\frac{(x+4)(x-4)}{2(x+2)} \frac{x(x^{2}-2x + 1) }{(x+4)(x-1)}$

Factorize $\frac{(x+4)(x-4)}{2(x+2)} \frac{x(x-1)^{2} }{(x+4)(x-1)}$

Simplify $\frac{x(x-4)}{2(x+2)}$
