2)-5+4x=-1
1)5+8x=11 ----(1)
8x=11-5 (Subtracting 5 from both the sides)
8x=6
x=6/8 = 3/4
Answer: x=3/4
Verification:Putting x=(3/4) in (1)
LHS= 5+8x
=5+8X(3/4)
=5+(2X3)
=5+6
=11=RHS
2)-5+4x=-1----(2)
4x=-1+5 (Adding 5 from both the sides)
4x=4
x=4/4 = 1
Answer:x=1
Putting x=1 in (2)
LHS = -5+4x= -5 +4X(1) = -5+4 = -1 +RHS
