Question

What value of X makes this equation true?

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is B

Step-by-step explanation:

-53=8x+5

First you would subtract the 5 on both sides then you would end up with

-58=8x

then you would divide both sides by 8 and get 7.25 or 7 1/4

Answer 2

Answer:

-7 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

-53=8x+5. Collect like terms

-53-5=8x

-58=8x divide both side by 8

x= - 7.25 or - 7 2/8 or -7 2/4
