Question

8x−9=3x=16
What is the value of x?

Answer 1

Hey again! :)
I was wondering if the equation was actually supposed to say = 2 times or if that was a typo?

Answer 2

oh, the second = is supposed to be a +

Answer 3

First,combine the like terms

Answer 4

\[8x-9=3x+16\]

Answer 5

Lol okay thank you.

Answer 6

\[8x-3x=16+9\]

Answer 7

\[5x=25\]Then,divide both sides by 5

Answer 8

so just combine your like terms! :)

8x - 3x would be 5x and 16 + 9 would be 25

So now you have 5x = 25

So just divide BOTH sides by 5

Answer 9

\[\frac{ 5x }{ 5 }=\frac{ 25 }{ 5 }\]\[x=?\]solve it @Girlie310
