Answer 1

Answer:

A one solution because it's x=1

Step By Step explanation:

this is the original problem

8x-3=3x+2

we want to have x by itself so. . .

we add three on both sides. it cancels -3. And 2+3=5

8x=3x+5

we subtract 3x on both sides so 8x-3x=5x and 3x cancels on the other side

5x=5

we divide by 5 on both sides to get x by itself

x=1

if it was 1=1 or x=x (the same on both side) it would've been infinite solutions. if the numbers didn't match like 4=6 it would've been no solution
