Question

nx+8=5 help solve

Answer 1

If you want to solve for x, then

\[\Large nx + 8 = 5\]

\[\Large nx= 5-8\]

\[\Large nx= -3\]

\[\Large x= -\frac{3}{n}\]

Answer 2

The idea is to follow PEMDAS in reverse and undo each operation. So you undo +8 by subtracting 8 from both sides for instance.
