Question

plsss answer asapp and pls show work ty:)

if CE=7x+4 , find the value of X

Answer 1

Answer:

x=5

Step-by-step explanation:

If CE=7x+4, then x+3+(8x-9)=7x+4

x+3+8x-9=7x+4

Combine like terms: 9x-6=7x+4

Isolate x to one side: 2x-6=4

add 6: 2x=10

divide by 2: x=5

check your work;plug x into both equations

5+3=8, 8(5)-9=31....8+31=39

7(5)+4=39
