What is the value of x in the following equation? -3x-2=2x+8

Mathematics
1 answer:
Arlecino [84]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

-2 =x

Step-by-step explanation:

-3x-2=2x+8

Add 3x to each side

-3x+3x-2=2x+3x+8

-2 = 5x+8

Subtract 8 from each side

-2-8 = 5x+8-8

-10 = 5x

Divide by 5

-10/5 = 5x/5

-2 =x

Rufina [12.5K]

The answer to the first one is:

x=-5/4y+-1/2. Why? 

 In the equation 8x+10y=-4, you subtract 10y form each side which leaves you with 8x=-10y-4. Right? Then you divide each side by 8 which gives you the answer

The answer to the second one is the same answer to the first problem. Why? Because you can already divide each side which gives you x=-5/4y+-1/2.

Hope this helps :^)
