When 8 is added to the number that is produced by doubling the number x, the result is equal to 8 times the number that is 5 less than x. What is the value of x? Please help I will give you brainless please

x=8

Step-by-step explanation:

8+ (2x) = 8*(x-5)

8*(x-5) applies to the distributive law : a(b-c) = ab-ac

a=8 b=x c=5

8x-8*5

8x-40

then add 8+(2x) back into the equation and you have

8+(2x) = 8x-40

subtract 8

2x=8x-48

subtract 8x

-6x=-48

divide by -6

x=8

check work by plugging it in to the provided info-

8*2 = 16

16+8 = 24

8-5 = 3

3*8=  24

x=8

5 x 14?

im new, sorry if this is wrong.

step-by-step explanation:

amount of oatypop that contains the prize = 40%

amount   of oatypop which doesn't contain the prize = (100-40)=60%

probability that hannah will win a prize

    = s +f s +f f s+ff   f s+ff f f s+ infinity.where f= failure,s= success

=   or 60%

probability that hannah only has to buy 3 or less boxes before getting a prize= (s) and ( f s) and (ff s) and (f f f s)

        = = 87.04 %
