Question

solve the linear equation x+7 8x/3=17/6-5X/6​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

We have

Multiplying both sides by 6, we get

6x + 42 - 16x = 17 - 15x

or -10x +42 = 17 - 15x

Transposing -15x to the LHS and 42 to the RHS :

-10x + 15x = 17 - 42

or 5x = -25

or x = -5

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiplying both sides by 6, we get

6x + 42 - 16x = 17 - 15x

or -10x +42 = 17 - 15x

Transposing -15x to the LHS and 42 to the RHS :

-10x + 15x = 17 - 42

or 5x = -25

or x = -5
