OpenStudy (nethercreep333):
Solve for x by simplifying both sides of the equation, then isolating the variable.
OpenStudy (nethercreep333):
x is 5/2

OpenStudy (annie12m):
but how could it be that when you simplify it down to 2 1/2 because there isnt a another box infrount of the fraction
OpenStudy (nethercreep333):
ok sinplify bith sides for me and tell me what you get
OpenStudy (nethercreep333):
then isolate the variable
OpenStudy (annie12m):
i dont get what you mean cause on the question it only shows 2 boxes and if i simplified 5/2 down it would need 3 boxes
OpenStudy (nethercreep333):
This is the problem, is it not?

its wrong
OpenStudy (annie12m):
so @123AB456C will you explain to me how you got your answer please
OpenStudy (nethercreep333):
yes, please explain
OpenStudy (123ab456c):
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation
2=8x+-2/9
OpenStudy (123ab456c):
Step 2: Flip the equation.
8x+-2/9=2

i did not see the question :(
OpenStudy (anonymous):
2\1 =2 times 8 =16 divided by 8 =?
OpenStudy (123ab456c):
Step 3: Add 2/9 to both sides.
8x+ -2/9=2/9=2 2/9
8x=2/9
OpenStudy (anonymous):
nvm i thought we was solving for x
OpenStudy (annie12m):
we are solving for x in the question it says,

OpenStudy (123ab456c):
Step 4: Divide both sides by 8.
8x/8 =20/9/8
soooooooo the answer issss
Answer: X=5/18!
OpenStudy (annie12m):
Solve for x. Express the answer in simplest form.
OpenStudy (123ab456c):
do you get it!
OpenStudy (123ab456c):
