What is the solution to 8/x+2=2/x-4

x=-1

Step-by-step explanation:

8/x+2=2/x-4

8/x=2/x-6

8=2-6x

6=-6x

-1=x

x=6

Step-by-step explanation:

8/x+2=2/x-4

Using cross products

8*(x-4) = 2 (x+2)

Distribute

8x - 32 = 2x+4

Subtract 2x

8x-2x -32 = 2x-2x+4

6x-32 = 4

Add 32

6x-32+32 = 4+32

6x = 36

Divide by 6

6x/6 = 36/6

x = 6

hello,

b) 62.47% of the students are between 14 and 18 years old.

step-by-step explanation:

mean = 15 and standard deviation = 2

student between 14 to 18

formula used z-score

for age 14 , z score

using z-table , p(z> -0.5)=0.3085

for age 18 , z score

using z-table , p(z< 1.5)=0.9332

p(-0.5< z< 1.5)=0.9332-0.3085 = 0.6247

thus, 62.47% of the students are between 14 and 18 years old.
