<span>The amount of dissolved oxygen in the Missouri River would decrease if large amounts of chemical waste were dumped into it. It would decrease because the chemical waste would feed on the microorganisms and reduce the amount of oxygen in the river.</span>
5(2x - 8) + 15 = -15
-15 -15 subtract 15 from each side
5(2x - 8) = -30
÷5 ÷5 divide both sides by 5
2x - 8 = -6
+8 +8 add 8 to each side
2x=2
÷2 ÷2 divide both sides by 3
x = 1
Checking:
5(2(1)-8) + 15 = -15
5(-6) + 15 = -15
-30 + 15 = -15
-15 = -15 Correct! x=1
