Question

-5x+8=18 its a two step equation and I need to know whether its a identity, one solution or no solution problem​

Answer 1

-2

Explanation:

- 5x + 8 = 18

Take + 8 to the right hand side, it turns negative i.e -8

-5x = 18 - 8

-5x = 10

Divide both sides by the coefficient of x which is -5

-5x/5 = 10/-5

x = -2
