Question

3x-4x-4-x+65=83x-8x+50

Answer 1

x=1/7

Explanation:

3x-4x-4-x+65=83x-8x+50

Solving the right side of equation we have;

83x-8x+50 = 75x +50

Solving the left side of the equation we have;

3x-4x-4-x+65= -2x +61

Equating left side and right side.

-2x +61= 75x +50

by grouping terms with x , we have :

-2x- 75x = -61+50

-77x= -11

x= -11/ -77 = 1/7

Answer 2

`x=(1)/(7)`

Explanation:

`3x-4x-4-x+65=83x-8x+50`

`3x-4x-x-4+65=83x-8x+50`

`-2x-4+65=83x-8x+50`

`-2x+61=83x-8x+50`

`-2x+61=75x+50`

`-2x+61-61=75x+50-61`

`-2x=75x-11`

`-2x-75x=75x-11-75x`

`-77x=-11`

`(-77x)/(-77)=(-11)/(-77)`

`x=(1)/(7)`
