Select the correct answer. Simplify the following expression. 5.3x − 8.14 + 3.6x + 9.8 A. 8.9x + 1.66 B. -2.84x + 17.94 C. 8.9x + 17.94 D. -2.84x − 1.66

A. 8.9x + 1.66

Step-by-step explanation:

5.3x - 8.14 + 3.6x + 9.8 =

= 5.3x + 3.6x - 8.14 + 9.8

= 8.9x + 1.66

A. 8.9x + 1.66

square root

step-by-step explanation:

37/3

step-by-step explanation:

step 1: simplify both sides of the equation.

7x+8(x+

)=3(6x−9)−8

7x+(8)(x)+(8)(

)=(3)(6x)+(3)(−9)+−8(distribute)

7x+8x+2=18x+−27+−8

(7x+8x)+(2)=(18x)+(−27+−8)(combine like terms)

15x+2=18x+−35

15x+2=18x−35

tep 2: subtract 18x from both sides.

15x+2−18x=18x−35−18x

−3x+2=−35

step 3: subtract 2 from both sides.

−3x+2−2=−35−2

−3x=−37

step 4: divide both sides by -3.
