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 .

answer would be 8.64 or s = 11π/4 inches

step-by-step explanation:

s = r θ  

where s = arc length  

r = radius = 3 inches  

θ = central angle in radians = ( π /180)*165  

s = 3(π/180)*165  

= 8.64 inches
