Question

x: 23-8(x-5)=x

Solve for x​

Answer 1

Answer:

The Correct Answer is 7

Step-by-step explanation:

23 - 8(x-5) = x

23 - 8x + 40 = x

63 = x + 8x

63 = 9x

7 = x

Answer 2

• We have to evaluate the above expression by using the given data.

              Given data:- $23-8(x-5)=x.$

              To find:- Value of the expression.

              Solution:-

• Here, we will use the below following steps to find a solution using the transposition method.

• Here we will use the transposition method.

• Transposition is one of the linear equations.

• To solve the transposition method we wi.ll Identify the variables and constants.

• Then we Simplify the equation in LHS and RHS.

• Now Simplify the equation using arithmetic operations.

         By using the transposition method.

        we get,

       $23-8(x-5)\\\Rightarrow 23-8 x+40=x \\\Rightarrow 63-8 x=x\\\Rightarrow -8 x-x=-63\\\Rightarrow -9x=-63\\\Rightarrow x=\frac{63}{9} \\\Rightarrow x=7.$

       Hence we will get the value $x=7.$
