Question

-7(x-4)+8x=12+14
would x=11?

Answer 1

no it wouldn't because if you use a calculator to do this it equals to 39 and 12 + 14 is 26.

Answer 2

I'm sorry I still don't get it, what is x equal to, I've been stuck on this for a while now :/

Answer 3

okay so you have to plug in 11 first so it would be -7(11-4)+8(11)= 39 and 12+14=26. 39 and 26 arnt equal so that equation is wrong

Answer 4

to make this easier copy and paste this -7(11-4)+8(11)= to google and the answer will show up which is 39 so that half is 39 and the 12+ 14 = that equals 26 those arnt equal so its wrong. I hoped this helped :)

Answer 5

I don't get it, math is a very hard subject for me....

Answer 6

so x= -2
