Answer:

x=6

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>first thing first you always need to get x alone and since you have an X on both side we need to move one of them to the same side as the other one.</em></u>

8x-72=2x-36

add 72 on both sides ( the opposite of subtracting is adding)

8x=2x-36+72  

8x=2x+36

then we subtract 2x on both sides to get X alone

8x-2x=36

6x=36

then we divide 36 by 6 to get our answer for x

X= 6

and that's your answer, hope this helped

Answer: x=6

<u>Subtract 2x from both sides</u>

<u></u>8x-72-2x=2x-36-2x\\6x-72=-36<u></u>

<u></u>

<u>Add 72 to both sides</u>

<u></u>6x-72+72=-36+72\\6x=36<u></u>

<u></u>

<u>Divide both sides by 6</u>

<u></u>6x/6=36/6\\x=6<u></u>
