Answer:
x=13, 16(x-1)
Step-by-step explanation:
For 38, you have to first divide both sides by 2.
This becomes, x-6=7
Add 6 to both sides
x=13.
For 40. You can can distribute the 8.
This makes it 16x-16.
With this you can than, factor out the 16.
16(x-1).
Answer:
- x =13
- 16x-16
Step-by-step explanation:
38.
[tex]2(x - 6) = 14\\\\\mathrm{Divide\:both\:sides\:by\:}2\\\\\frac{2\left(x-6\right)}{2}=\frac{14}{2}\\\mathrm{Simplify}\\x-6=7\\\mathrm{Add\:}6\mathrm{\:to\:both\:sides}\\\\x-6+6=7+6\\\\x=13[/tex]
40.
[tex]8(2x - 2)\\\mathrm{Apply\:the\:distributive\:law}:\\\quad \:a\left(b-c\right)=ab-ac\\\\a=8,\:b=2x,\:c=2\\\\=8\times \:2x-8\times \:2\\\\=16x-16[/tex]
