Question

Solve for X. Please explain if possible.
-8 1/4x - 68 = -6.25x - 58

Answer 1

X=-5

Explanation:

Start by isolating the variable to one side. So from here we would add 68 to both sides. we will be left with -8 1/4x = -6.25x+10. Then add 6,25 to both sides to cancel on and get -2x=10. Divide both sides by -2 to get x=-5
