What is the solution of the equation −8x+13=−19

Question

is it
A -4
B 3/4
C - 3/4
or D 4

Answer 1

To solve the equation -8x + 13 = -19, we need to isolate the variable x.

First, let's subtract 13 from both sides of the equation:

-8x + 13 - 13 = -19 - 13

Simplifying both sides:

-8x = -32

Next, divide both sides of the equation by -8:

(-8x)/(-8) = (-32)/(-8)

Simplifying:

x = 4

Therefore, the solution to the equation is D) 4.
