Question

8x +3=13 please say correct or​

Answer 1

Here we are given an equation 8x +3=13

We have to solve the equation for 'x'

In order to find out the value of 'x' we will have to rearrange the equation

$8x+3=13\\8x=13-3\\8x=10\\x=\frac{10}{8}\\x=\frac{5}{4}\\x=1.25$

So, on solving we get the value of 'x' to be 1.25

Answer 2

Given data,

The given equation is $8x +3=13$

Now here we have to find the value of $x$

In order to find the value of $x$ we have to transpose all the constant terms to RHS.

So, transpose $3$ to RHS, the positive value becomes negative when it is transposed to other side.

We get,

$8x=13-3$

$8x=10$

Also transpose $8$ to RHS we get,

$x=\frac{10}{8}$

The value $10$ can be written as $2\times 5$

The value $8$ can be written as $2\times 4$

$x=\frac{2\times5}{2\times4}$

$x=\frac{5}{4}$

Also, the value of $x$ can be written as $1.25$

Therefore, the value of $x$ is $1.25$ or $\frac{5}{4}$
