4=5x-16 is your answer and when you take the 3x from the left side then you also have to take it from the 8x on the other side

Its not must that 3x have to be the one to be subtracted. You could take 8x as well.

But always subtract from the smaller one (in this case 3x) because its easier.

If you are subtracting 3x-3x and 8x-3x, the equation would be like

4 = 5x - 16

5x = 4+16

5x = 20

x = 4

485, because the mean means you need to calculate the average. to find the average, you take the smallest number from the data set and the largest number. add the largest number by the smallest number and divide by the set of numbers you added (2). Example: (720+250=970 divided by 2 =485)
