Question

x+8/3x-5 = x-8/x+5 find the value of x​

Answer 1

Answer:

To solve linear equations, we can remember the following rules:

We can add any finite term to both sides of the equation.

We can multiply any finite, non-zero term to both sides of the equation.

Thus, we have the following steps

3x+5=8x

Adding −3x on both sides,

3x+5+(−3x)=8x+(−3x)

=>3x+5−3x=8x−3x

=>5=5x

It is considered best to keep the unknowns, here x, on the right hand side of the equation.

5=5x

=>5x=5

Multiplying by 15, on both sides

5x×15=5×15

5x5=55

x=1

Thus we have our solution. To check if it is correct, we need to substitute it back in the given expression.

3x+5=8x

=>3(1)+5=8(1)

=>3+5=8

=>8=8

We know that 8=8, so the solution we obtained must be correct.
