Question

solve the following equation 5x-8=3x-2by transposing method ​

Answer 1

Answer:3

Step-by-step explanation

Given

5x-8=3x-2

Required Proof

Value of x

Proof

5x-8=3x-2

(Transpose '3x' to LHS and '-8' to RHS)

5x-3x=-2+8

(Solve the equation)

2x=6

(Transpose 2 to RHS)

x=6/2

x=3

Answer 2

Here we are given an equation 5x - 8 = 3x - 2

We have to solve this equation to find the value of x by transposing

So, here we will transpose 3x to the left-hand side and 8 to the right-hand side

So, 5x - 8 = 3x - 2

5x - 3x = -2 + 8

2x = 6

x = 6/2

x = 3

Hence, the value of x will be 3
