For this case we have the following equation:
[tex]6x + 5 = 5x + 8 + 2x[/tex]
We must find the solution.
We add similar terms from the right side of the equation:
[tex]6x + 5 = 7x + 8[/tex]
We subtract 5 from both sides of the equation:
[tex]6x = 7x + 8-5\\6x = 7x + 3[/tex]
We subtract 7x on both sides of the equation:
[tex]6x-7x = 3[/tex]
Different signs are subtracted and the sign of the major is placed:
[tex]-x = 3[/tex]
We multiply by -1 on both sides of the equation:[tex]x = -3[/tex]
Thus, the solution of the equation is [tex]x = -3[/tex]. -5 is not a solution to the equation.
Answer:
[tex]x = -3[/tex]. -5 is not a solution to the equation
