Answer 1

To solve the equation $2f5-85+2f=8$, let's first clarify our equation. It seems there may be a typo in "f5" – assuming it’s meant to be just a variable $f$. Let's rewrite the equation as:

$$2f-85+2f=8$$

Now, combine like terms:

$$4f-85=8$$

Now, isolate $f$ by adding 85 to both sides:

$$4f=8+85$$

$$4f=93$$

Next, divide both sides by 4 to solve for $f$:

$$f=\frac{93}{4}$$

Now, we can check if any of the options correspond to this fraction:

93 divided by 4 gives:

$$93÷4=23.25$$

Therefore, since the options you provided were:

• $\frac{16}{6}$
• $4$
• $12$
• $\frac{8}{3}$

None of these options are equal to $\frac{93}{4}$.

However, if the original function in your equation was different, please clarify, so I can help more accurately! As it stands, the solution $f=\frac{93}{4}$ does not match the options you provided.
