x+6

Question

x+5
​
=
9
8

Answer 1

It looks like you're trying to solve a system of equations. However, the equations you've written are not clear.

If you meant to write two equations, it might look something like this:

1. \( x + 6 = 9 \)
2. \( x + 5 = 8 \)

Let's solve each equation for \( x \).

For the first equation:

1. \( x + 6 = 9 \)
   • Subtract 6 from both sides:
   • \( x = 9 - 6 \)
   • \( x = 3 \)

For the second equation:

2. \( x + 5 = 8 \)
   • Subtract 5 from both sides:
   • \( x = 8 - 5 \)
   • \( x = 3 \)

In both cases, we find that \( x = 3 \).

If this is not what you intended, please provide more clarity on what you're asking!
