Solve the equation 3(x-6)+8=5x-6

x = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

3(x - 6) + 8 = 5x - 6

Distribute;

3x - 18 + 8 = 5x - 6

Collect like terms;

3x - 10 = 5x - 6

Subtract 5x from both sides;

-2x - 10 = -6

Add 10 to both sides;

-2x = 4

Divide both sides by -2

x = -2

the answer is c)8

in problems involving proportions, we can use cross products to test whether two ratios are equal and form a proportion. to find the cross products of a proportion, we multiply the outer terms, called the extremes, and the middle terms, called the means.
