Question

What digit is in the x-32=8+5x

Answer 1

`-32=8+5x`

To solve x:

1- Subtract 8 in both sides of the equation:

`\begin{gathered} -32-8=8-8+5x \\ -40=5x \end{gathered}`

2- Divide both sides of the equation into 5:

`\begin{gathered} -(40)/(5)=(5)/(5)x \\ \\ -8=x \\ \\ \text{ Rewrite:} \\ x=-8 \end{gathered}`Then, x is -8
