Question

-6 = x/8 + 4

1.8

16

-80

-16

Answer 1

x = - 80

Explanation:

Given

- 6 =
`(x)/(8)` + 4 ( subtract 4 from both sides )

- 10 =
`(x)/(8)` ( multiply both sides by 8 )

- 80 = x

Answer 2

`\large\boxed{x=-80}`

Explanation:

In this question, we're trying to get x by itself, so we know what the value of x equals to.

We would do simple adding / subtracting / multiplying.

Solve:

`-6 = (x)/(8) + 4\\\\\text{The first thing we can do is subtract 4 on both sides, in order to get the} \\(x)/(8)\,\text{by itself}\\\\-10=(x)/(8)\\\\\text{To get x by itself, we would multiply by 8 since the opposite of divison is}\\\text{ multiplication}\\\\-80=x`

When you're done solving, you should get -80

This means that x = -80

I hope this helped you out.

Good luck on your academics.

Have a fantastic day!
