Respuesta :
1: distribute the 1/8 to (8x+15). multiply 8 times 1/8 and 15 times 1/8. 1x+1.875.
2: Subtract 1.875 from both sides. x=22.125. which is equal to 177/8.
Answer: C
2: Subtract 1.875 from both sides. x=22.125. which is equal to 177/8.
Answer: C
Answer:
Option C is correct
one hundred seventy-seven over eight
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the equation: one over eight (8x + 15) = 24
[tex]\frac{1}{8}(8x+15) = 24[/tex]
Multiply both sides by 8 we have;
8x+15 =192
Subtract 15 from both sides we have;
[tex]8x+15-15= 192-15[/tex]
Simplify:
8x = 177
Divide both sides by 8 we have;
[tex]x = \frac{177}{8}[/tex]
Therefore, the value for x is, one hundred seventy-seven over eight
