Question

Solve for x: 1/8 (8x + 15) = 24 plz help I am so confused

Answer 1

ok so what do you think for your awnser

Answer 2

1/8 * (8x + 15) = 24
1/8 * 8x + 1/8 * 15 = 24
x + 15/8 = 24
x = 24 - 15/8
x = 192/8 - 15/8 = 177/8 = 22.125

The correct result would be 177/8.

Answer 3

\(\LARGE\frac18(8x+15)=24\)
Simplify; distribute:
\(\LARGE(\frac18)(8x)+(\frac18)(15)=24\)
\(\LARGE x+\frac{15}{8}=24\)

\(\frac {-15}{8}\) both sides:
\(\LARGE x+\frac{15}{8}−\frac{15}{8}=24−\frac{15}{8}\)
\(\LARGE x= \frac{?}{?}\)
