Question

solve the equation 8 x + 3 (X + 4) = 10 x- 7​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

8x + 3(x + 4) = 10x + -7

Reorder the terms:

8x + 3(4 + x) = 10x + -7

8x + (4 * 3 + x * 3) = 10x + -7

8x + (12 + 3x) = 10x + -7

Reorder the terms:

12 + 8x + 3x = 10x + -7

Combine like terms: 8x + 3x = 11x

12 + 11x = 10x + -7

Reorder the terms:

12 + 11x = -7 + 10x

Solving

12 + 11x = -7 + 10x

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-10x' to each side of the equation.

12 + 11x + -10x = -7 + 10x + -10x

Combine like terms: 11x + -10x = 1x

12 + 1x = -7 + 10x + -10x

Combine like terms: 10x + -10x = 0

12 + 1x = -7 + 0

12 + 1x = -7

Add '-12' to each side of the equation.

12 + -12 + 1x = -7 + -12

Combine like terms: 12 + -12 = 0

0 + 1x = -7 + -12

1x = -7 + -12

Combine like terms: -7 + -12 = -19

1x = -19

Divide each side by '1'.

x = -19

Simplifying

x = -19

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

(8x+3=11)×(x+4)=12)=10x-7)=3
