The correct answer is Hector's, 4 degrees, and Gale's.
Answer: x=1/2
she was wrong, it's supposed to be
Step-by-step explanation: 8(x−3)+7=2x(4−17)
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
8(x−3)+7=2x(4−17)
(8)(x)+(8)(−3)+7=2x(4−17)(Distribute)
8x+−24+7=−26x
(8x)+(−24+7)=−26x(Combine Like Terms)
8x+−17=−26x
8x−17=−26x
Step 2: Add 26x to both sides.
8x−17+26x=−26x+26x
34x−17=0
Step 3: Add 17 to both sides.
34x−17+17=0+17
34x=17
Step 4: Divide both sides by 34.
34x/34=17/34 x=1/2
I think is inside and then outside. Not sure
Hope this helps!
