So when solving this you are going to have to solve the equation.
Okay so first thing we need to do is simplify both sides of your equation so:
3x−5=<span>2x+8+x
</span>Simplifying process:
<span><span><span>3x</span>+</span>−5</span>=<span><span><span>2x</span>+8</span>+<span>x
</span></span><span>Combine Like Terms </span>⇒ 3x−5=<span>(2x+x)+(8)
</span><span><span>3x</span>−5</span>=<span><span>3x</span>+<span>8
</span></span><span><span>3x</span>−5</span>=<span><span>3x</span>+<span>8
</span></span>Second thing we are now going to do is s<span>ubtract 3x from both sides<span> so:
</span></span><span><span><span>3x</span>−5</span>−<span>3x</span></span>=<span><span><span>3x</span>+8</span>−<span>3<span>x
</span></span></span><span>−5</span>=<span>8
</span>Final step is to add 5 to both sides:
−5+5=<span>8+5
</span>0=<span>13
</span>The answer to your question is "<span>There are no solutions"</span>
Well, seeing the information above, he used 5/8 of paint to paint the fence and table top. If he only had 1/8 left of the paint, he used 2/8 on the chair.
I found the 5/8 because I needed a common denominator. I multiplied the top and bottom by 2 to get 2/8. 3/8+2/8=5/8, and then I added 2/8 to the 5/8 that then gave me 7/8 of paint used, and 1/8 of paint left.
Hope I helped!
I put it in my ti calculator and it’s 14
A and D
should be the answers.
