Question

(6x + 7) + (8x-27) how do you solve

Answer 1

Answer:

x=+17

Step-by-step explanation:

6x+7=8x-27

We move all terms to the left:

6x+7-(8x-27)=0

We get rid of parentheses

6x-8x+27+7=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

-2x+34=0

We move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right

-2x=-34

x=-34/-2

x=+17

Answer 2

42+(8x27)
42+ (-216)
42-216
= -174
