Question

solve for x.

-px+r=-8x-2

Answer 1

Answer:

x = (2+r) / (p-8)

Step-by-step explanation:

-(px - r) = - (8x+2)

px-r = 8x+2

px-8x = 2+r

x(p-8) = 2+r

x = (2+r) / (p-8)

Answer 2

Considering x be the only variable. q and r be the constant in a linear system. Then the value of x is $\rm \dfrac{r + 2 }{p-8}$.

What is the linear system?

It is a system of an equation in which the highest power of the variable is always 1. A one-dimension figure that has no width. It is a combination of infinite points side by side.

Given

The linear equation is $\rm -px +r = -8x -2$.

Let x be the only variable.

And q and r be the constant.

The value of x will be

$\rm -px +r = -8x -2\\\\px - 8x \ = r + 2$

Take x common,

$\rm x(p - 8) \ = r + 2$

Then divide it by p-8

$\rm x = \dfrac{r + 2 }{p-8}$

Thus, the value of x is $\rm \dfrac{r + 2 }{p-8}$.
