Answer:

One solution.

Explanation:

6.5x+4=8+5x

-5. -5. Subtract 5 from both sides to leave 8 by itself.

1.5x+4=8

-4 -4. Subtract 4 from both sides to leave 1.5x by itself.

1.5x=8

/. /

1.5 1.5 Divide both sides by 1.5 to leave x by itself.

X=2.6 repeating Since x= a number, it has only one solution.


Hope it helps:)
