Question

Find the value of x: 4x + 5 = x + 8 (Write proper steps)
​

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

4x+5 = x+8

=> 4x+5-5 = x+8-5 [Subtracting 5 from both sides]

=> 4x = x+3

=> 4x-x = x+3-x [Subtracting x from both sides]

=> 3x = 3

=> 3x/3 = 3/3 [Dividing both sides by 3]

=> x = 1

Therefore, the value of x is 1

Hope I could help. Thank You!

Answer 2

$\sf\huge\bold{\underline{\underline{{Solution}}}}$

4x+5=x+8

Step by step explanation

=>Here, we see that in the given equation the equation on both sides have two different terms.one is constant and other is variable term so,to make similar term we have to make one term of Variable one other term constant.

=>Now,4x is on the left hand side we will shift it towards right side because here one more Variable say x and from this side we will shift 8 towards left hand side because here a constant is here say 5.We will do all procedure just to make similar term.

=>4x+5=x+8

=>5-8=x-4x

=>-3=-3x

=>-3x=-3

-ve sign on both side so,it gets cancelled.

=>3x=3

3 is on both side ,so it gets cancelled.

=>x=1

Check

4(1)+5=1+8

=>4+5=1+8

=>9=9
