Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that 8+3x= x
solve for x
8= -2x
-4 =x
The only answer that has -4 is A
The distributive property combines multiplication with addition and multiplication with subtraction together in order to simplify the equation. It is named as such because the number outside of the open and close parenthesis are distributed to the terms inside. Say for example, the equation given is 5(2x - 3). According to the distributive property, you distribute 5 by multiplying to each of the terms inside the parentheses. The solution would be: 5*2x + 5*-3 = 10x - 15. As you can see, it involved multiplication with addition and subtraction. Generally, you just have to add all the terms while making sure you carry the sign of the integer along when you multiply them just as shown in my example.
The answer is that x equals 15
Most people use the decomposition method but i dont know how to do that so i use the Joes method a method similar to decomp. but easier.

Find gcf: None
complet trinomial: 18n^2+57-10
find the product=10(18)
=-180
find the sum =57
-3 and 60 goes into both meaning if you multiply 3 and60 you get -180 and if you add them you get 57.
so (n-3)(n+60)
divide by a in this case it 18
so (n<u>-3</u>)(n+<u>60</u>)
18 18
do not divide. treat it like a fraction so you reduce it to lowest terms
(n<u>-3</u>)(n<u>-3)
</u> 18 10
<u /> at this point its reduced to lowest terms so now you take the deniminator and move it beside the "n"
=(18n-3)(10n-3)
therefore your answer is (18n-3)(10n-3)
I hoped this helped :)
