Hey there!
Let's solve this equation.
5x+3x-4=10
add the x's
8x-4=10
add 4 to both sides
8x=10+4
8x=14
divide both sides by 8
x=14/8
Reduce the fraction;
x=7/4 (improper fraction)
x=1+3/4 (mixed number)
Hence, the equation has 1 solution.
Hope everything is clear.
Let me know if you have any questions!
