3) Expand both sides of the equation:
8(9) + 8(2x) = 5(2) - 5(3x)
72 + 16x = 10 - 15x
Combine like terms:
16x + 15x = 10 - 72
31x = -62
Divide by 31 to solve for x:
x = -62/31
x = -2
Therefore, the solution for the equation is x = -2.
4) Solve for x in the second equation:
29.3 - (x + 5.6) = 15.8
29.3 - x - 5.6 = 15.8
23.7 - x = 15.8
Subtract 23.7 from both sides:
Divide by -1 to solve for x:
x = 7.9
Therefore, the solution for the equation is x = 7.9.
