Pls Help!! will give 15 points
solve for x

7(8-x) = 210

Answer 1

x=-22

Explanation:

7(8-x)=210

you would use the distributive property

56-7x=210

then subtract both sides by 56

-7x=154

then divide both sides by -7

x=-22

Answer 2

x=266

Explanation:

I'm sure if this is correct but this is how I did it seven times eight is 56 and you have to subtract that number by x so x would have to be bigger so it would be 56 minus 266

will give you 210
