X+8x -(x-1) = 5(x+2) help me??

Question

X+8x -(x-1) = 5(x+2) help me??

Answer 1

1.Open the brackets -(x-1).So it will be x+8x -x+1= 5(x+2)

2.Now expand the other side which would be 5x+10

3.Collect all the x terms to one side and all numbers to the other

4.before the equation was x+8x-x+1=5x+10

   *now it would be like!!

   *x+8x-x-5x=10-1

   *9x-6x=9

   *3x=9

   *x=9/3=3

don't think that Iam a NERD

its just Iam an Indian and our syllabus kind of have these stuff

Answer 2

x=3

Answer 3

x + 8x - (x - 1) = 5 (x + 2)

x + 8x - x + 1 = 5x + 10

x + 8x - x - 5x = -1 + 10

3x = 9

x = 9/3

x = 3

Answer 4

x+8x-x+1=5x+10

8x+1=5x+10

3x-9

x=3

Answer 5

The first thing to do is work through the parentheses:

x+8x -(x-1) = 5(x+2)

becomes:

x + 8x -x + 1 = 5x + 10

Combine like terms on the left side:

8x + 1 = 5x + 10

Subtract 5x from both sides:

3x + 1 = 10

Subtract 1 from both sides:

3x = 9

Divide both sides by 3:

x = 3

Check by substituting 3 back into the original equation:

3 + (8 * 3) - (3 - 1) = 5(3 + 2)

3 + 24 - 2 = 5 * 5

25 = 25

Answer 6

here are the steps:

x+8x-x+1 = 5x + 10 <------ get rid of parentheses

8x+1 = 5x+10 <------- simplify

3x = 9

x=3

Answer 7

x + 8x -x + 1 = 5x + 10 (distribute negative and 5)

simplify

8x + 1 = 5x + 10

bring exponents to left by subtracting 5x

3x + 1 = 10

subtract 1 from both sides

3x = 9

divide by 3

x = 9/3 = 3

x = 3

Answer 8

x+8x-(x-1)=5(x+2)

x+8x-x+1=5x+10

8x+1=5x+10

3x+1=10

3x=9

x=3

i hope it's help

Answer 9

I assume you're trying to solve for x

1.  expand everything (negative on the left and the 5 on the right)

2.  bring all x's on one side of the eq. and all constants (numbers w/o x's) to the other side.

3. combine x's on there side and constants on the other

4.  dived the constants by the number of x's you have.

Answer 10

9x-x+1=5x+2

   ==>    8x+1=5x+10

   ==>    3x=9

   ==>      x=9/3

                 x=3      ans
