Given:
The given equation is,
[tex]3x-19+(?)x=-5x-19[/tex]
Required:
To find the missing value.
Answer:
The given equation is,
[tex]\begin{gathered} 3x-19+(?)x=-5x-19 \\ \end{gathered}[/tex]
By putting (-8) in place of (?) in the given equation, we get,
[tex]\begin{gathered} 3x-19+(-8)x=-5x-19 \\ \Rightarrow3x-19-8x=-5x-19 \\ \Rightarrow-5x-19=-5x-19 \\ \Rightarrow-19=-19 \end{gathered}[/tex]
This shows that the given equation has infinitely many solutions.
Final Answer:
The missing value is -8.
