Answer 5

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.
8(x−2)=5(x+4)
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
8(x−2)=5(x+4)
Simplify: (Show steps)
8x−16=5x+20
Step 2: Subtract 5x from both sides.
8x−16−5x=5x+20−5x
3x−16=20
Step 3: Add 16 to both sides.
3x−16+16=20+16
3x=36
Step 4: Divide both sides by 3.
3x
