Its C.
Negative x Negative is positive, so its not A or D.
Positive x Positive is Positive, so its not B either.
C is your option because Positive x Negative is Negative, and vice verca.
8a - 4 = 25 + 6 (a - 8)
(distribute the 6)
8a - 4 = 25 + 6a - 48
(combine like terms 25 - 48)
8a - 4 = 6a - 23
( subtract 6a from both sides)
2a - 4 = -23
(add 4 to both sides)
2a = -19
(divide both sides by 2)
a = - 9.5
////CHECK/////
8 (-9.5) - 4 = 25 + 6 ( -9.5 -8)
(plug each side into a calculator)
-80 = -80
FINAL ANSWER:
a = -9.5

Answer:
The value of x = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the equation
- Expand 12(x-2) = 12x - 24
- Expand 1/2(x+6) = 1/2x + 3
so the equation becomes
simplifying
multiplying both sides by 2
subtracting x from both sides
divide both sides by 29
simplifying
Therefore, the value of x = 2
