Question

8 ( x ─ 4 ) + 9 = 5 ( x + 2)

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

$8(x - 4) + 9 = 5(x + 2) \\ \\ 8x - 32 + 9 = 5x + 10 \\ \\ 8x - 23 = 5x + 10 \\ \\ 8x - 5x = 10 + 23 \\ \\ 3x = 33 \\ \\ x = \frac{33}{3} \\ \\ x = 11$

Answer 2

Answer:

x = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

given :- 8 ( x - 4 ) + 9 = 5 ( x + 2)

=> 8x - 32 + 9 = 5x + 10

=> 8x - 5x = 10 - 9 + 32

=> 3x = 1 + 32

=> 3x = 33

=> x = 33/3

=> x = 11
