Reply correctly please it's ​

Answer 1

Answer:

X = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

8x + 5 = 3x - 3 + 13

8x + 5 = 3x + 10

8x - 3x = 10 - 5

5x = 5

So,

x = 5 ÷ 5

= 1

Answer 2

Answer:

5/11

Step-by-step explanation:

8x + 5 = 3(x-1) + 13

8x + 5 = 3x -3 +13 (opening the bracket)

8x + 5 + 3x = -3 +13

8x + 3x= -3 +13-5

11x = 13-8

11x= 5

x = 5/11
