To solve the equation 8(x-6) = 5, we need to distribute the 8 on the left side:
8(x-6) = 8x - 48
Now the equation becomes:
8x - 48 = 5
Add 48 to both sides to isolate the x term:
8x = 53
Divide by 8 on both sides to solve for x:
x = 53/8
Therefore, the solution to the equation is x = 6.625.
8(x-6) = 8x - 48
