Question

7x+8(x+1/4)=3(6x-9)-8 solve to find the value of x to make the equation true

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

7x+8(x+1/4)=3(6x-9)-8

Opening the brackets

7x + 8x + 2 = 18x - 27 - 8

Collecting like terms

7x - 18x + 8x = -27 - 8 - 2

-3x = -37

Dividing through by -3

x = -37/-3

x = 12 1/3
