For the equation 3x-5=8x-30, the first thing you do is subtract 3x from both sides of the equation, so you get -5=5x-30. Next you add 30 to both sides, getting 25=5x. Lastly, you divide both sides by 5, leaving the solution of 5=x. Should your equation be 3(x-5)=8x-30, you would first multiply x-5 by 3, getting 3x-15, creating the equation 3x-15=8x-30. You would then subtract 3x from both sides, betting -15=5x-30. Then add 30 to both sides, creating an equation of 15=5x. Divide both sides by 5, and you get a solution of 3-x.

If 3 - 2i is a solution to a polynomial equation is the complex conjugate 3 plus 2i also a solution yes or no?
Not necessarily, take for example the equation x^2=5-12i. Then, 3-2i satisfies the equation. However, 3+2i does not because (3+2i)^2 = 5+12i.
Does the equation 4x-3 equals 12 plus 2x has exactly one solution?
Yes, because the equation is linear, there is only one solution:4x - 3 = 12 +2x4x - 2x = 12 + 32x = 15x = 7.5There is no other solution
Y 0.82 3 x?
The solution to the equation 0.81y + 3x is 3(0.27y + x).
Is 2 a solution of the inequality 2x 5 9?
2 is a solution of the equation, but not if it's an inequality.
What does one solution mean in math?
An equation may have zero, one, or more solutions (this is also true for a system of equations). The equation 2 + x = 5 has only solution, for example. x can only equal 3, so there is one solution. (An example of an equation with more that one solution is x2 = 4. In this case x can equal 2 or -2, so this equation has two solutions. An example of an equation with an infinite number of solutions is x + 6 = 3*2 + x. x can equal any number to make this equation true, so it has an infinite number of solutions. The equation x = x + 1 is an example of an equation with no solutions.)
Does a solution to an equation make the equation true or false?
A solution to an question makes the equation true. For example a solution to the equation 3x = x + 6 is x = 3, since 3(3) = 3+6.
How do you divide an exponential equation?
X5/X3 5 - 3 = X2 =====That is the exponent part; subtract the bottom exponent from the top exponent. X3/X5 3 - 5 X - 2 =====or, 1/X2 ===
Does the equation 7x-56x 3 have exactly one solution?
It has no solution because without an equality sign it is not an equation.
What is the solution of 9n 3?
If you mean: 9n = 3 then the value of n is 1/3 which is the solution to the equation
Which equation has solution x -3?
The equation that has the solution x = -3, is, precisely:x = -3 If you want anything more fancy, you can add some number (the same number to both sides), multiply by some number (the same number to both sides), etc.
What is a subtraction equation with the solution of -3?
-2-1=-3
What is the answer to the equation 3 5 9 ----33 65?
It is not an equation and no solution is possible.
What is the difference between a situation and a solution equation?
A situation equation follows the order of the story problem.For instance:Johnny has 8 apples, he eats some, and has 3 left.The situation equation would be: 8 - a = 3A solution equation is the equation that would help you find the solution. Your brain doesn't automatically know what "a" is, it has to rearrange the order of the equation and then solve.The solution equation would be: 8 - 3 = a, then you would solve it.
What is y equals -3?
Possibly the solution to an equation
What is the solution of the equation yx³-3?
Without an equality sign the given expression is not an equation
How to make an equation equaling six or three.?
An equation never equals a number, but its solution often does.-- An equation with a solution of six: [ 3x - 14 = 4 ]-- An equation with a solution of three: [ 14 - 10x = -16 ]-- An equation with both solutions: [ x2 - 9x + 20 = 2 ]An equation that equals 6 is 10 - 4 = 6An equation that equals 3 is 10 - 7 = 3
What is the definition of solution of equation?
An algebraic equation has (at least one) variable, usually called x. To solve the equation means to figure out the value of x. For example, in the equation x + 4 = 7 the solution is x = 3, because 3 + 4 = 7.
