Answer:
x = (3a + 8)/b
Step-by-step explanation:
a(5 - 2) = bx – 8
bx = a(5 - 2) + 8
x = (3a + 8)/b
Answer: x =3a/b + 8/b
Rewrite the equation as
bx − 8 = a ( 5 −2).
bx − 8 = a(5 −2)
Simplify a(5−2)
Subtract 2 from 5.
bx− 8 = a ⋅ 3
Move 3 to the left of a.
bx − 8 =3a
Add 8 to both sides of the equation.
bx = 3a +8
Divide each term by b and simplify.
x =3a/b + 8/b
