[50 if -9.8x = -14.7 what is the value of 8(x - 9.2)? i need halp ; -;me understand how u got the awnser , you!

Simply calculate x as x=-14.7/-9.8
you'll get x=1.5
then input x into the other one
and you get 8*(1.5-9.2)=8*(-7.7)=-61.6

First, solve the equation for the value of x:

-9.8x = -14.7 (Divide each side by -9.8)
x = 1.5

Then substitute 1.5 as x into the expression:

8(x - 9.2)
8((1.5) - 9.2)
8(-7.7)
-61.6

Thus, given x = 1.5 from the initial equation, the expression 8(x - 9.2) = -61.6
