I’ve never understood this, please help!

-80

Step-by-step explanation:

So basically what we need to do is find the value of x that satisfies the equation.

When I mean satisfy, I basically mean a value of x that makes one side of the equals sign equal to the other side of the equals sign.

So in this case, we need -6 = -6.

To find this lets solve the equaion step by step:

-6=x/8+4

So first off, you always want to get the variable on one side, and the number on the other.

This means you want to subtract the 4 from both sides, leaving x/8:

-6=x/8+4

-4       -4

-10=x/8

Whenever x is not 1x, you have to divide or multiply to get it equal to 1x.

If this is a bit confusing, here is an example:

100=10x

We need 1x, but above is 10x. The reason why we want 1x is because it is the lowest ratio, and most accurate x value.

You can think of it like a 1 dollar bill. Its easier and better to use than per say a 3 dollar bill.

So in the example above you would divide by 10, since 10x/10 would equal 1x.

Remember the rule however, that what you do on one side you must do on the other. This emans you would divide both sides by 10:

100/10 =10x/10

=

10=1x

We have in our equation:

-10=x/8

Our x is lower than 1. It x/8. Whenever we have a value of x greater than 1, we divide, like we did in the example. However here, it is below x. So we multiply.

In this case we multiply by 8, since its x/8:

-10 * 8 = x/8 * 8

=

-80=x

So x is equal to -80.

I hope you understand it better now :D

step-by-step explanation:

i'm assuming you need to figure out how many campers go into each tent.

i got the answer by:

24+4=28

28/4=7
