Question 8735: I need to know what x is. I have been working on one problem for two hours and I can't take it anymore... I don't know what to do from here and I've searched my notes and textbook... I will paste how far I've gotten.. (not very far!) Can you tell me how it's done from here?

2) (4/5)x + 18 = 12
-18 -18
(4/5)x = -6
(4/5) (4/5)
