what is the solution of the equation negative -8X +13 equals -19?

1 answer

To solve the equation:

-8X + 13 = -19

First, we can simplify by adding 19 to both sides of the equation:

-8X + 13 + 19 = -19 + 19

This simplifies to:

-8X + 32 = 0

Next, we can isolate the variable by subtracting 32 from both sides:

-8X + 32 - 32 = 0 - 32

This simplifies to:

-8X = -32

Finally, we can solve for X by dividing both sides by -8:

(-8X) / -8 = (-32) / -8

This simplifies to:

X = 4

Therefore, the solution to the equation -8X + 13 = -19 is X = 4.
