Question

1. 4(x - 2) = x + 10

2. 2/3(n - 6) = 5n - 43
3. -2(y + 12) = y - 9
4. 8(12 - k) = 3(k + 21)
5. 8(-1 + m) + 3 = 2( m - 5 1/2)
6. 2y - 3(2y - 3) 2 = 31

Answer 1

1. 6 = x

2. 9 = n

3. -5 = y

4. 6 9⁄11 = k

5. -1 = m

6. -1 3⁄10 = y

Explanation:

1. 4x - 8 = x + 10

2. ⅔n - 4 = 5n - 43

3. -2y - 24 = y - 9

4. 96 - 8k = 3k + 63

5. -5 + 8m = 2m - 11 [Distributive Property, combine like-terms, then solve for x]

6. For this one, I could not tell whether you wanted me to FOIL it or just treat it as multiplication, so I went with multiplication and got this: 18 - 10y = 31

For the rest, all you have to do is use the Distributive Property of Multiplication, then solve for x.

I am joyous to assist you anytime.
