Solve for X:
10( x + 1) = 2 x-7
-1
-3
-17/8
-18/8

-17/8

Step-by-step explanation:

10( x + 1) = 2 x-7

10x + 10 = 2x - 7

10 + 7 = 2x - 10x

17 = - 8x

x = -17 /8

answer: 42

use a calculator to find that 845/73 = 11.575

the whole part of the answer is 11. multiply this by 73 to get 11*73 = 803.

subtract that result from 845 to get 845 - 803 = 42
