Okay, so for this question, we have the equation 2x plus 8 is equal to 5x minus 3.
00:13
So i'm going to explain to you how to do it as we go along.
00:18
So here, what we're going to do is use the addition property of equations, of equalities, my bad, to combine the like terms and get all the terms of x.
00:30
On one side and all the number terms on the other side.
00:33
So we're going to combine 2x and 5x, and then 8 and negative 3.
00:40
So this way, i am going to subtract negative 2x.
00:47
I'm going to subtract 2x, so it'll be adding negative 2x on both sides.
00:52
And then on this side, i would be adding 3...
