How Do I Do Number 9 And Can You Please Show Work On Paper class=

Just take it slow and easy, one small step at a time:

Write the problem :        4x + 2 = 7x - 8

Add  8  to each side:      4x + 10 = 7x

Subtract  4x  from each side:  10 = 3x

Divide each side by  3 :          10/3 = x

That wasn't so bad, was it ?

[tex]4x+2=7x-8\\\\4x+2-7x-2=7x-8-7x-2\\\\-3x=-10\ /:(-3)\\\\x= \frac{10}{3} \\\\x=3 \frac{1}{3} [/tex]
