Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve this equation, first we need to make the equation easier to read.

So instead of:

8x - (-5) = 29

We will do:

8x + 5 = 29

<em>(</em><em>Note</em><em> </em><em>that</em><em> </em><em>we</em><em> </em><em>have</em><em> </em><em>a</em><em> </em><em>plus</em><em> </em><em>sign</em><em> </em><em>now</em><em>,</em><em> </em><em>because</em><em> </em><em>subtracting</em><em> </em><em>a</em><em> </em><em>negative</em><em> </em><em>number</em><em> </em><em>is</em><em> </em><em>the</em><em> </em><em>same</em><em> </em><em>as</em><em> </em><em>adding</em><em> </em><em>a</em><em> </em><em>positive</em><em> </em><em>number</em><em>.</em><em>)</em>

Next we move the 5 to the other side of the equal sign, by subtracting it.

Now we have:

8x = 24

Finally we isolate the x variable, by dividing by 8 on both sides.

(24 ÷ 8 = 3)

Our answer is 3, therefore x = 3.

Hope this helps you :)

1. The winner threw the ball 175 ft, so what we want to do now is we convert (175) ft into yd.

We already know that 1ft= 1/3 yd, so the distance in yd is:
175 ft* (1/3 yd/ 1 ft) = 58 1/3 yd.

The answer is A. 58 1/3 yards.

2. 75 min* (4.5 miles/ 15 min)= 22.5 miles.

The correct answer is D. 22.5

3. Let's say that there are 4 weeks in a month. There are 5 weekdays in a week, so the number of weekdays in a month is:
5 weekdays/ 1 week* (4 weeks/ 1 month)= 20 weekdays/ 1 month.

Alex runs 5.9 miles/ 1 weekday, so the number of miles he runs every month is:
(5.9 miles/ 1 weekday)* (20 weekdays/ 1 month)= 118 miles/ month.

The nearest number to 118 is 120, so the answer is D.120 miles

4. 10 sweaters to 8 shirts:

10:8= 10/8= 5/4

The answer is B. 5/4

Hope this would help~
