Question

Solve for the following....

`\boxed{\tt 4x-(9-3x)=8x-1}`

Answer 1

Given:-

• 
  `\sf \: 4x - ( 9 - 3x ) = 8x - 1`

`\:`

Solution:-

• 
  `\sf \: 4x - ( 9 - 3x ) = 8x - 1`

`\:`

• 
  `\sf \: 4x - 9 + 3x = 8x - 1`

`\:`

• 
  `\sf \: 4x + 3x - 9 = 8x - 1`

`\:`

• 
  `\sf \: 7x - 9 = 8x - 1`

`\:`

• 
  `\sf \: 7x - 8x = -1 + 9`

`\:`

• 
  `\sf \: -1x = 8`

`\:`

• 
  `\sf \: x = \cancel (8)/( - 1)`

`\:`

• 
  `\underline{ \sf \color{lightgreen} \: x = -8 \: }`

`\:`

Answer 2

-8

Explanation:

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

7x - 9 = 8x - 1

7x = 8x + 8

x = -8

Therefore, the solution to the equation 4x - (9 - 3x) = 8x - 1 is x = -8.
