Answer: The solution is x = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
-Solve:
[tex]3x=1x+8[/tex]
-Subtract [tex]1x[/tex] on both sides of the equation:
[tex]3x=1x+8\\-1 -1[/tex]
[tex]2x=8[/tex]
-Then, you divide both sides by 2:
[tex]\frac{2x}{2} =\frac{8}{2}[/tex]
[tex]x=4[/tex]
Therefore, the solution of this equation is [tex]x =4[/tex]
