Studdy Solution

STEP 1

Assumptions1. The equation given is 3−1=143 -1 =14 . We need to find the value of 8+8 +

STEP 2

First, we need to solve the given equation for $$. We can do this by adding1 to both sides of the equation.
−1+1=14+1 -1 +1 =14 +1

STEP 3

implify the left side of the equation.
3=14+13 =14 +1

STEP 4

Calculate the right side of the equation.
3=153 =15

STEP 5

To find the value of $$, we can divide both sides of the equation by3.
=153 = \frac{15}{3}

STEP 6

Calculate the value of $$.
=5 =5

STEP 7

Now that we have the value of $$, we can substitute it into the expression $ +2$ to find its value.
+2=+2×5 +2 = +2 \times5

STEP 8

Calculate the value inside the parentheses.
8+2=8+108 +2 =8 +10

STEP 9

Calculate the final value.
