8x(-2.3)=-18.4=2 is this the correct answer? thanks
8X(-2.3)=-18.4=2 IS THIS CORRECT?
THANKS
Are you solving for x? What is your original problem?
8x(-2.3) = -18.4x
Where did your 2 come from?
To solve this equation and determine if the given answer is correct, we need to evaluate the expression on the left-hand side of the equation.
The given expression is 8 multiplied by -2.3. To find the product, simply multiply 8 by -2.3:
8 * (-2.3) = -18.4
So, we have -18.4 on the left-hand side of the equation.
The next part of the equation states -18.4 = 2. However, this is not correct. -18.4 and 2 are not equal to each other.
Therefore, the given answer is not correct. The correct equation should be:
8 * (-2.3) = -18.4
