Find x
-2(3x - 5) = 4(x+3)+8

Step-by-step explanation:

(You will have to distribute first.)

-2(3x-5)=4(x+3)+8

-6x+10=4(x+3)+8

-6x+10=4(x+3)+8

-6x+10=4x+12+8

(Now you will have to add the numbers.)

6x+10=4x+12+8

-6x+10=4x+20

(Now you will have to subtract 10 from both sides of the equation.)

-6x+10=4x+20

-6+10-10=4x+20-10

(Now you will have to simplify.)

-6x=4x+10

(You will now subtract 4x from both sides of the equation.)

-6x=4x+10

-6x-4x=4x+10-4x

(You will now simplify again.)

-10x=10

(Now divide both sides of the equation by the same term.)

-10x=10

  (Dividing -10)

-10  -10

(You will get x=-1 as the answer.)

step-by-step explanation:

x ≥ 18 is your answer

step-by-step explanation:

let "a number" = x

(2/3)x + 17 ≥ 29

isolate the variable (x). do the opposite of pemdas (parenthesis, exponent (& root), multiplication, division, addition, subtraction).

first, subtract 17 from both sides.

(2/3)x + 17 (-17) ≥ 29 (-17)

(2/3)x ≥ 29 - 17

(2/3)x ≥ 12

next, multiply 3/2 to both sides to isolate the x

(3/2)(2/3)x ≥ 12(3/2)

x ≥ 12(3/2)

simplify. multiply, then divide

x ≥ (12 * 3)/2

x ≥ (36)/2

x ≥ 18

x ≥ 18 is your answer
