The answer is B. 5
6+2=8
3+5=8
I'm assuming that you meant 4x+1=3x?
Subtracting 4x, we get 1=-x. Multiplying by -1, we get x=-1 as the solution.
The number that twice the sum of it and negative seven is eight is 11.
<h3>How to find the number ?</h3>
Twice the sum of the number and negative seven is eight. The number can be found as follows:
let
the number = x
According to the word expression, twice the value of the addition of x and minus seven is equals to 8. Hence, we will find the value of x in the equation formed from the words expression.
The variable x is the required number.
Therefore,
2(x + (-7)) = 8
2(x - 7) = 8
open the brackets
2(x - 7) = 8
2x - 14 = 8
add 14 to both sides of the equation
2x - 14 = 8
2x - 14 + 14 = 8 + 14
2x = 22
divide both sides by 2
x = 22 / 2
x = 11

Answer:
The x-coordinate of point P is 6
Step-by-step explanation:
we have
A (2,3) and B (8,0)
we know that
Point P portions the segment AB in the ratio 2 to 1
so
and
where
AP_x represent the distance between the points A and P in the x-coordinates
AB_x represent the distance between the points A and B in the x-coordinates
The x-coordinate of P is equal to
where
A_x represent the x-coordinate of A
substitute the values
therefore
The x-coordinate of point P is 6
3+4 = 7
so
21 / 7 3
3 x 3 = 9
3 x 4 = 12
answer
£21 in ratio 3:4 is £9:£12
