Question 197271
{{{8x+3=6x-13}}} Start with the given equation.



{{{8x=6x-13-3}}} Subtract {{{3}}} from both sides.



{{{8x-6x=-13-3}}} Subtract {{{6x}}} from both sides.



{{{2x=-13-3}}} Combine like terms on the left side.



{{{2x=-16}}} Combine like terms on the right side.



{{{x=(-16)/(2)}}} Divide both sides by {{{2}}} to isolate {{{x}}}.



{{{x=-8}}} Reduce.

Answer:


So the solution is {{{x=-8}}}
