Question

What is the solution to the equation 3x + 2(x - 9) = 8x + x - 14?

A.-8

B.-1

C.1

D.8

Answer 1

B.) -1

Explanation:

Here, 3x + 2(x - 9) = 8x + x - 14 is given

Now, we will solve and we get,

3x + 2(x - 9) = 8x + x - 14

3x + 2x - 18 = 9x - 14

5x - 9x = 18 - 14

-4x = 4

4x = -4

x = -4÷4

x = -1

Thus, The value of x is -1

Hence, Option B is correct
