Solve for x: 2 over 3 equals 8 over quantity x plus 6

x = 40/3

Step-by-step explanation:

2/3 = (8/x) + 6

-6                -6

2/3 - 6 = -16/3

-16/3 = 8/x

*x          *x

(-16/3)x = 8

+16/3     +16/3

x = 40/3

x= 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation  :

To solve the above equation, first we multiply 3(x+6) on both sides , then we get

Using distribution property :

we get

Subtract 12 from both sides , we get

Divide both sides by 2 , we get

Hence, the value of x= 6 .

d is correct

step-by-step explanation:

walter needs to make at least 5 more cookies but no more than 40. 5 ≥ x ≥ 40;

step-by-step explanation:

walter has to make a minimum of 20 cookies. he already has 15 cookies made, so he must make 5 more to meet the minimum.

the maximum amount of cookies he can make is 55. he already has 15, so he has to make no more than 40 more cookies to meet the maximum.
