8(3x-2)-8x=9(2x-6) find x

x=19

Step-by-step explanation:

8(3x-2)-8x=9(2x-6) Distribute.

24x-16-8x=18x-54   Combine like terms.

16x-16=18x-54         Subtract 16x from both sides (getting rid of a variable first  

-16x     -16x               is easier).

-16=2x-54                 Add 54 to both sides.

+54    +54

38=2x                       Divide both sides by 2.

/2   /2

19=x

Hope this helps!! Have a great day ^^

answer: 230 miles ( vote ! )

step-by-step explanation:

180.39 minus 17.99 equals 162.4

then divide 162.4 by .80 to get 230

56.6

step-by-step explanation:

the ratio of the perimeters is equal to the scale.

the ratio of the areas is equal to the square of the scale.

34 / 20 = k

a / 19.6 = k²

substituting:

a / 19.6 = (34 / 20)²

a = 19.6 (34 / 20)²

a ≈ 56.6
