It is a linear equation with a single unknown, x.
If you want the solution of the equation,
8x - 7 = 5x + 8
Collect terms, remembering to change signs if you go from one side to the other:
8x - 5x = 8 + 7
or 3x = 15
Divide both sides by 3: x = 5

What is 5x plus 6 equals 8x?
5X+6=8X move 5x to the other side 6=8X-5X 6=3X then solve for x 6/3 = X 2 = X so X = 2 is the answer
What is the solution to 8x-19 equals 3x plus 1?
8x - 19 = 3x + 1 5x -19 = 1 5x = 20 x = 4
What is 8x equals 5x plus 3?
x would equal 1, 8x=5x+3, then you minus 5x from both sides, 3x=5x+3, then you divide 3 from both sides, x=1.
8x-7 plus 2x equals 6 plus 5x plus 2?
8x-7 plus 2x equals 6 plus 5x plus 2?
8x equals 5x plus 24?
8x = 5x+24 8x-5x = 24 3x = 24 x = 8
If 8x plus 5x plus 2x plus 4x equals 114 the 5x plus 3 equals?

How do you figure out 5x plus 49 equals 8x plus 13?
5x+49 = 8x+13 49-13 = 8x-5x 36 = 3x x = 12
8x - 4 equals -7 plus 5x?
8x-4 = -7+5x 8x-5x = -7+4 3x = -3 x = -1
8x-7 plus 2x equals 6 plus 5x plus 2 equals?

What does x equals in 3x plus 11 plus 5x equals 75?
3x+11+5x=75(add 5x and 3x) 8x+11=75(-11) 8x=64(/ 8) x=8(ANSWER)
What is x 5x plus 1 plus x-2 equals 8x plus 6?
5x+1+x-2 = 8x+6 5x+x-8x = 6+2-1 -2x = 7 x = -3.5
If 8x plus 5x plus 2x plus 4x equals 114 then what would 5x plus 3 equal?
8x + 5x + 2x + 4x = 114 19x = 114 x = 6 then 5x + 3 = 5*6 + 3 = 33
7 plus 8x-5 equals 8x plus 7-5x?
7+8x-5 = 8x+7-5x Subtract 7 from both sides: 8x-5 = 8x-5x Subtract 8x from both sides: -5 = -5x Divide both sides by -5: x = 1 So the equation implies x = 1
8x - y equals 4 and 5x plus 3y equals 17?
