How many solutions are there to the equation below ? 8x+47 =8 (x+5)

First, distribute the right side.

8*(x + 5) = 8x + 40

Then, we write the whole equation:

8x + 47 = 8x + 40

Looking at it, we can subtract 8x from both sides, so that we're left with:

47 = 40

However, we obviously know that 47 is NOT equal to 40, so there is no solution for this equation.

1. 8

2. 9

3. 20

4. 3

5. 17

6. 2.2

7. 11.25

8. 1

9. 14

10. 2

step-by-step explanation:

thats the first half

we need to divide the number of toy dinosaurs, 156, by the number of brothers, 4:

in order to estimate, we can use compatible numbers:

156 ÷ 4

  ↓

160   ÷ 4 = 40        

the correct answer is a).
