QuestionSolve the equation: $4 x - 5 = 8 - 2 x$ .

Studdy Solution

STEP 1

Assumptions1. The equation is $4x -5 =8 -x$ . We are solving for $x$

STEP 2

We start by moving the terms involving $x$ to one side of the equation and the constants to the other side. This can be done by adding $2x$ to both sides of the equation and adding $5$ to both sides of the equation.
$4x -5 +2x +5 =8 -2x +2x +5$

STEP 3

implify both sides of the equation.
$6x =13$

STEP 4

Now, we can solve for $x$ by dividing both sides of the equation by $6$ .
$x = \frac{13}{6}$ So, the solution to the equation $4x - =8 -2x$ is $x = \frac{13}{6}$ .
