Answer:
x = 10/3
Step-by-step explanation:
6=2(x+8)-5x
Distribute
6 = 2x+16-5x
Combine like terms
6 = 16-3x
Subtract 16 from each side
6-16 = 16-16-3x
-10 = -3x
Divide by -3
-10/-3 = -3x/-3
10/3=x
Answer:
-1.43
Step-by-step explanation:
6=2(x+8)-5x
take 2 and deposit it into the parenthesis thatll give you
6=2x+16-5x
next you combine like terms so add 5x to both sides to cancel -5x then you get
6=7x+16
then you take subtract 16 on both sides which will give you
-10=7x
finally you divide 7x on both sides to get x by itself which will give you your final answer of...
-1.43=x
