Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation: 97

Answer 2

Given,

$\[8x - 5x + 4 - x = Ax + 8\]$

Solution,

$\[\begin{array}{l}8x - 5x + 4 - x = Ax + 8\\ \Rightarrow 2x + 4 = Ax + 8\\ \Rightarrow 2x + 4 = Ax + 8\end{array}\]$

Comparing both side the coefficient of x.

$\[A = 2\]$

Hence the value of A is 2.
