Which value of x makes the following equation true?
6(x - 1) = -2x + 50

x=7

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

6(x−1)=−2x+50

(6)(x)+(6)(−1)=−2x+50(Distribute)

6x+−6=−2x+50

6x−6=−2x+50

Step 2: Add 2x to both sides.

6x−6+2x=−2x+50+2x

8x−6=50

Step 3: Add 6 to both sides.

8x−6+6=50+6

8x=56

Step 4: Divide both sides by 8.

8x /8 = 56 /8

x=7

c) the median for town a 30" is greater than the median for town b 25"

step-by-step explanation:

town a, median = q2 = 30

town b, median - q2 = 25

so the median for town a 30" is greater than the median for town b 25"

answer: 0

step-by-step explanation: the positive, like 5, + its opposite, like -5 would be 0

5+(-5)=0, or 5-5=0
