GPT 3.5
8(x+2) = 5x + 16 + 3x
First, distribute the 8 to the terms inside the parentheses:
8*x + 8*2 = 5x + 16 + 3x
Simplifying:
8x + 16 = 5x + 16 + 3x
Combine like terms on the right side:
8x + 16 = 8x + 16
Subtract 8x from both sides to isolate the variable term:
8x - 8x + 16 = 8x - 8x + 16
Simplifying:
16 = 16
The equation is true for all real numbers.
