Question

the value of x in the equation 8x+6=5[x-2] is.......

Answer 1

8x-6=5x-10 => 8x-5x+16=0
3x=-16
X=-16/3

Answer 2

Heya!
--------

======================================================

◀Given Equation =>
================


=> 8x + 6 = 5 ( x - 2 )

=> 8x + 6 = 5x - 10

=> 8x - 5x = -10 - 6


=> 3x = -16

=> x = -16 / 3



⚫Verification ⚫
==============


◀Put x = -16/3 in the Equation =>
============================


=> 8 × -16 / 3 + 6 = 5 [ -16/3 - 2 ]

=> -48/3 + 6 = 5 [ -16/3 - 2 ]


=> On Solving ,


=> -110/3 = -110/3


◀L.H.S = R.H.S


◼◻Hence the Value of X is -16/3
