(3x-5)/2 = 8

3x - 5 = 2 × 8

3x - 5 = 16

3x = 16 + 5

3x = 21

x = 21/3

x = 7

Answer:

Explanation:

Equation

(3x - 5)/2 = 8 Multiply both sides by 2

2*(3x - 5)/2 = 8 * 2 Combine

3x - 5 = 16 The 2s on the left cancel. Add 5 to each side

3x - 5 + 5 = 16+5 Combine

3x = 21 Divide both sides by 3

3x/3 = 21/3

x = 7

Answer: x = 7
