Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Write the equation

2x + 1 + 5x - 8

2. Add 8 on both sides

2x + 9 = 5x

3. Get the variables together

9 = 3x

4. Solve for x and divide both sides by 3

x = 3

Hello!

\large\boxed{x = 3}

2x + 1 = 5x - 8

Solve by subtracting both sides by 2x:

2x - 2x + 1 = 5x - 2x - 8

1 = 3x - 8

Add 8 to both sides:

1 + 8 = 3x - 8 + 8

9 = 3x

Divide both sides by 3:

9/3 = 3x/3

x = 3
