3x+18=5x+8

if this has a solution answer

1 answer

To find the solution to the equation 3x + 18 = 5x + 8, we can start by simplifying both sides of the equation:

3x + 18 = 5x + 8

By subtracting 3x from both sides:

18 = 2x + 8

Then, by subtracting 8 from both sides:

10 = 2x

Finally, dividing both sides by 2:

5 = x

So the solution to the equation is x = 5.
