Responses

52x−8−1=9
and x≠−4
Start Fraction 5 over 2 x minus 8 End Fraction minus 1 equals 9 and x does not equal negative 4

52x−8=9
and x≠−8
Start Fraction 5 over 2 x minus 8 End Fraction equals 9 and x does not equal negative 8

52x−8−1=9
and x≠4
Start Fraction 5 over 2 x minus 8 End Fraction minus 1 equals 9 and x does not equal 4

5/2x−8 − 1 =9
and x≠8

Answer 1

5/(2x − 8) − 1 = 9 and x ≠ 4

(Restriction because 2x − 8 ≠ 0 ⇒ x ≠ 4.)
