Question

3x-43=8 slove the equation

Answer 1

Salutations!


`3x-43=8`

Keep the variables aside, and the numbers aside.


`3x = 8+43`

The operation changes as you isolate them


`3x= 51`

Divide 51 by 3


`x=51/3`


`x=17`

Hope I helped (:

Have a great day!

Answer 2

3x - 43 = 8
Shift the - 43 to the other side and change it to +
3x = 8 + 43
3x = 51
Isolate x by shifting 3 to the other side, dividing 51 by 3.
X = 51 / 3
X = 17
