Let's solve your equation step by step
-8=3-5(x+6)
Step 1: simplify both sides of the equation
-8=3-5(x+6)
-8=3+(-5)(x)+(-5(6) (distribute)
-8=3+-5x+-30
-8=(-5x)+(3+-30) (combine like terms)
-8=-5x+-27
-8=-5x-27
Step 2: flip the equation
-5x-27=-8
Step 3: add 27 to both sides
-5x-27+27=-8+27
-5x=19
Step 4: Divide both sides by -5
-5x/-5 = 19/-5
Answer : x= -19/5
Answer:
85 parking spaces
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that :
Parking spaces on floors :
Let first floor = x
Second floor = 2x
Third floor = 2x + 3
Total parking spaces = 428
THEREFORE ;
x + 2x + 2x + 3 = 428
5x + 3 = 428
5x = 428 - 3
5x = 425
x = 425 / 5
x = 85
Hence, there are 85 parking spaces on the first floor
