Answer:

The answer to the given problem
3x-4+2(x-5)=9x+8-2x is x=-11

Explanation:

Given problem is
3x-4+2(x-5)=9x+8-2x

To solve the equation:


3x-4+2(x-5)=9x+8-2x


3x-4+2x-10=9x+8-2x (multiplying the term with factor)


5x-4-10=7x+8 (adding the like terms)


5x-14=7x+8 (adding the like terms)

Now taking the terms to one side


5x-14-7x-8=0


-2x-22=0 (adding the like terms)


-2x=22


-x=(22)/(2)


-x=11

x=-11

Therefore x=-11

The answer to the given problem
3x-4+2(x-5)=9x+8-2x is x=-11
