Question

Brain Fart >.< 8 − x = 17

Answer 1

Move over x to the other side
So it will be like
8-x=17 -> 8-x+x=17+x
so 8=x+17
should be easy from there

Answer 2

where did you get 8-x+x=17+x ~confused

Answer 3

I just added x on both sides :))

Answer 4

so i can get rid of the -x;; if yu dont understand, just think of it as moving -x to the other side.

Answer 5

i tried that when i tried answering the question my self when i added the x to the 17 ? >.<

Answer 6

i dont care about the answwer i just want to know how you got that ahhh!!!

Answer 7

8 - x = 17 (add x from both sides)
8 - x + x = 17 + x
8 = 17 + x (subtract 17 from both sides)
8 - 17 = 17 - 17 + x
-9 = x

Answer 8

^ there you go lol

Answer 9

it can also be done like this...
8 - x = 17 (subtract 8 from both sides)
8 - 8 - x = 17 - 8
-x = 9 (multiply by -1 to make x positive)
x = -9
