Question

solve the equation 3x+2=8x-8 and represent the solution on number line

Answer 1

Answer:

$\green { Value \: of \: x = 2 }$

Solution on number line :

<----•(-1)---•(0)---•(1)---•(2)---•(3)---•---->

Step-by-step explanation:

$Given \: simple \: equation : 3x+2=8x-8$

/* Subtract 3x both sides of the equation, we get

$\implies 3x+2-3x = 8x-8-3x$

$\implies 2 = 5x - 8$

/* Add both sides of the equation by 8 , we get

$\implies 2+8 = 5x - 8 + 8$

$\implies 10 = 5x$

/* Divide each term by 5 , we get

$\implies 2 = x$

Therefore.,

$\green { Value \: of \: x = 2 }$
