ITs the same as the first one kinda, but i need to know how to get it!
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Ok, first subtract by 4 on both sides.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
What do you have now that you subtract 4?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Ok the other side is -6. And -6 - 4 is -10
So far we have -10= x/8
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok

subtract four on each side then multiply by 8
OpenStudy (anonymous):
that will get you your answer
OpenStudy (anonymous):
you must use arithmetic to manipulate your equation.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Yes now you multiply by 8, since it was originally being divided.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so if their is a -4 on one side and their isnt a variable on the other you should +by 4

ohhhh Got the steps right, but i wanted to divide! not multiply!
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Use the Division Property of Equality, the Multiplication Property of Equality, the Subtraction Property of Equality, and the Addition Property of Equality to solve for your answer.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Can You also show me this one??
OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I subtract -4 and get +4 and then do it to the other side
OpenStudy (anonymous):
So positive 2
