Question

Which statements are true when using algebra tiles to solve the equation 8x + (–4) = 11x + 5?

Answer 1

Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

You are given the equation $8x+(-4)=11x+5$

1. Add 8 negative x-tiles to both sides of the equation to create a zero pair on the left side. The equation then will have form

$8x+(-4)+(-8x)=11x+5+(-8x)\\ \\-4=3x+5$

2. Add 5 negative unit tiles to both sides of the equation to create a zero pair on the right side. The equation now is

$-4+(-5)=3x+5+(-5)\\ \\-9=3x$

3. Divide both sides by 3:

$\dfrac{3x}{3}=\dfrac{-9}{3}\\ \\x=-3$
