1. -8-x=x-4x
2. -14+6b+7-2b=1+5b

Solve for x

1.) x = 4

2.) b = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

1.) -8 - x = x - 4x (collect like terms)

-8 - x = -3x (add x on both sides)

-8 = -2x (divide by -2 on both sides)

4 = x

2.)  -14 + 6b + 7 - 2b = 1 + 5b (collect like terms)

4b - 7 = 1 + 5b (subtract 4b on both sides)

-7 = 1 + b (subtract 1 on both sides)

-8 = b
