\bold{Answer}

\boxed{\bold{X \ = \ -10}}

\bold{Explanation}

  • \bold{Simplify: \ -\frac{3}{4}\left(x+2\right)=6}

\bold{-------------------}

  • \bold{Multiply \ Both \ Sides \ By \ -4}

\bold{\left(-\frac{3}{4}\left(x+2\right)\right)\left(-4\right)=6\left(-4\right)}

  • \bold{Simplify}

\bold{3\left(x+2\right)=-24}

  • \bold{Divide \ Both \ Sides \ By \ 3}

\bold{\frac{3\left(x+2\right)}{3}=\frac{-24}{3}}

  • \bold{Simplify}

\bold{x+2=-8}

  • \bold{Subtract \ 2 \ From \ Both \ Sides}

\bold{x+2-2=-8-2}

  • \bold{Simplify}

\bold{X \ = \ -10}

\boxed{\bold{Eclipsed}}

-10.

Solution: Multiply the negative three fourths by everything in the parenthesis.

-  \frac{3}{4} x + ( -  \frac{3}{2} ) = 6

Add the negative three halves to both sides.

-  \frac{3}{4} x  =  \frac{15}{2}

Multiply both sides by negative four thirds.

x =  - 10

Britney is going to the candy store to buy 20 pieces of candy. She is going to buy chocolate candy and caramel candy. Each piece
igomit [66]
To start off, you want to make the equations. first, we will make x = chocolate candy and y=caramel candy since thats the order they come in the problem. we know she bought 20 pieces of candy, so we now know our first equation, x+y=20. next, if each chocolate candy costs $.50, that now makes x in our second equation .5x. the y will then be .1y. they then total up to equal $6.80, so our second equation is .5x+.1y=6.8. to then find x, subtract the y from the first equation to get x=20-y. then in the second equation, replace x with y and solve. you then get y=8, so we know britney has 8 caramels. now in the first equation, replace the y to get x+8=20. and now x=12
