The answer is x=4.
set the equations up: 8x-5=6x-3
Subtract 6x from one side and then the other side 2x-5=3
Add 5 from one side and then the other 2x=8
Divide 2 on each side which gets you x=4
You just need to foil. 2x times 4x times 2x times 36 times 24 times 4x times 24times 36. then solve.
135
cross multiply 9*20 then divide by 8
The answer is 15.9 because 3.9+111=15.9
