Answer:

x=-8

Brief explanation:

Well I simplify first

4x-(9-3x)=8x-1

4x-9+3x=8x-1

then you do this operation called collecting similar terms

4x+3x-9=8x-1

7x-9=8x-1

7x-8x=-1+9

7x-8x=8

-x=8

x=-8 should be ur solution

Answer:


\sf \: x = - 8

Explanation:

Given equation,

→ 4x - (9 - 3x) = 8x - 1

Now the value of x will be,

→ 4x - (9 - 3x) = 8x - 1

→ 4x - 9 + 3x = 8x - 1

→ (4x + 3x) - 9 = 8x - 1

→ 7x - 9 = 8x - 1

→ 7x - 8x = -1 + 9

→ -x = 8

→ [ x = -8 ]

Hence, the value of x is -8.
