Question

8x -(-5) = 29 To make the equation true, what is the value of x?

Answer 1

X=3 move constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
Subtract the numbers
Divide both sides by 8

Answer 2

Answer:

X = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

-(-5) is also the same as + 5, so the equation would be 8x + 5 = 29

Subtract 5 from both side of the equation

8x+5-5 = 29 -5

8x = 24

Then divide both sides by 8

Final answer x=3
