-9 you combine your like terms 5x and -3x and you get 2 then you subtract 8 on both sides and now you get 2x=-18 then u divide two on both sides the 2 crosses out so it is x then 2/-18 gets you a -9 so x=-9 if I’m wrong plz correct me

Answer 2

Answer:

1 Simplify 5x+8-3x to 2x+8

2x+8=-10

2x=-10-8

2x=-18

4 Divide both sides by 2

x=−2/18

5 Simplify the fraction. 2/18 to 9
