Question

In equation 2 x - 9 = 5 + 8X transposing 8x to LHS we get ​

Answer 1

Answer:

2x - 8x - 9 = 5

- 6x - 9 = 5

- 6x = 5 + 9

-6x = 14

$x = \frac{14}{ - 6} \\ \\ = \frac{ - 14}{6} \\ \\ = \frac{ - 7}{3}$

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

2x - 8x - 9 = 5

- 6x - 9 = 5

- 6x = 5 + 9

-6x = 14

\begin{gathered}x = \frac{14}{ - 6} \\ \\ = \frac{ - 14}{6} \\ \\ = \frac{ - 7}{3} \end{gathered}

x=
