6x+8=x+35 how do i solve??
subtract x from both sides to get
5x + 8 = 35 now subtract 8 from both sides
5x = 27 divide by 5
x = 27/5 = 5 2/5
6x + 8 = x + 35
subtract x from each side 6x – x + 8 = x – x + 35
that gives you 5x + 8 = 35
subtract 8 from each side 5x + 8 – 8 = 35 – 8
that gives you 5x = 27
divide both sides by 5 x = 27/5
x = 5.4
5.4
