5 - 2x = 8 x = -1 and 1/2 4x = 6 x = 6/4 or 3/2
x= -5
3x+8 = 2x+5 Subtract 2x from both sides: x+8 = 5 Subtract 8 from both sides: x = -3
-2x+5=13 you subtract 5 away from +5 and this cancels out. you then do the same to the other side by taking 5 away from 13 therefor you get 8. Now you have -2x=8, take -2x and divide it into 8 and you get 4.
