Answer:
Answers in description based on what you're looking for. Not sure if you meant solve, because combining like terms results in repeating number
Explanation:
- Combining like terms would lead to:
21 = 9x
/9 /9
x = 2.333333 (Repeating 3)
- Or to solve:
16 + 4x = 5x + 5
- 4x - 4x
16 = x + 5
- 5 -5
11 = x
