Question

If 8(2x-5)-6(3x-7)=1. Find the value of x

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

8(2x-5) - 6(3x-7) = 1

16x-40-18x+42 = 1

-2x+2 = 1

2x = 2-1

2x = 1

x = 1/2

Answer 2

Answer:

x = 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

8(2x - 5) - 6(3x - 7) = 1

16x - 40 - 18x + 42 = 1

-2x + 2 = 1

-2x = 1 - 2

-2x = -1

x = -1/-2

x = 1/2
