Answer 1

You talk like Indian when you type....maybe grandson use smoke signals, that help!

6 = 8[s - (3/4)] - 20
6 = 8s - 6 - 20 {used distributive property}
6 = 8s - 26 {combined like terms}
32 = 8s {added 26 to both sides}
s = 4 {divided both sides by 8}

Answer 2

6 = 8[s - (3/4)] - 20

6 = 8s - 6 - 20

6 = 8s - 26

32 = 8s

s = 4
