1. -8°C

2. +6 kg

3. 0 m

4. -50

5. +3

6. -8

7. +1000 ft

8. -2

9. -4

10. 1/8

2 over 5

step-by-step explanation:

we are given

since, we have to isolate x on anyone side

so, we can move all x terms on one side

subtract both sides by 2x

add both sides by 9

divide both sides by 4

we get
