Answer:
x= -3
Step-by-step explanation:
simplify.
1+4=x-8
Move all terms containing x to the left
1+3x=-8
Move all terms NOT containing to the right
3x=-9
Divide each term by 3
x= -3
Answer:
x=-3
Step-by-step explanation:
9-4(2-x)=x-8
9-8+4x=x-8 (the ones in the bracket get multiplied with 4 and the signs changed as 4 is negative)
4x-x=-8-9+8 (the signs changed as they switched sides)
3x= -17+8
3x= -9
x= -9/3
x= -3
