Question

-8x - 5x simplify and show steps

Answer 1

Simplify both sides −8x − 5x = −13x which would equal −13x = −13x

Than add 13x to both sides: −13x + 13x = −13x + 13x

So, the answer is 0=0,
which could be said as all real numbers are solutions.

Answer 2

-8x-5x = -13x
1.) -8x + -5x
2.) -13x
