Answer 7

oop

Answer 8

\[\frac{ -1 }{ 8 }\left( x +35 \right) = -7\]

Answer 9

which answer choice is that?

Answer 10

C.?

Answer 11

what you need to do to eliminate the denominator ?

Answer 12

yes of cors and the minus from both sides ?

Answer 13

yeah this is an example... First method:

treat (x − 4) as a quantity

2(x−4) = −92
2(x−4)
2
=
−92
2
2
2
(x−4) =
−92
2
x−4 = −46
x−4 +4 = −46 +4
x = −42

Second method:

simplify using the distributive property

2(x−4) = −92
2x−8 = −92
2x−8 +8 = −92 +8
2x = −84
2x
2
=
−84
2
x = −42

Answer 14
