Question

please help solve

7 (x + 8) + 4 = -11 (x - 8) -9

Answer 1

Answer:

x=1 1/18

Step-by-step explanation:

7(x+8)+4=-11(x-8)-9

distribute- 7x+56+4=-11x-88-9

7x+60=-11x+79

subtract 60 from both sides (60),(79)

7x=-11x+19

add 11x on both sides

18x/18 and 19/18

which gives you x=1 1/18 or 19/18

Answer 2

Answer:

x=19/18

Step-by-step explanation:

7x +56+4=-11x+88-9

7x+60=-11x+79

18x+60=79

18x=19

x=19/18 or 1 1/18
