Question

What is the solution to the equation below? -1+ 3x - 8 = 7

Answer 1

Answer:

x=16/3

Step-by-step explanation:

left part : -1+3x-8

right part: 7

left part = right part

-1+3x-8=7

left part +8= right part +8

-1 + 3x -8 +8=7+8

-1+3x=15

left part : -1+3x

right part : 15

left part+1=right part+1

-1+3x+1=15+1

3x=16

so

x=16/3
