How can you show that a given number is the solution of an equation? Substitute the value into the equation for the variable and simplify. A true statement will result.
Substitute a similar value into the equation for the variable and simplify. The resulting false statement shows the original value is true.
Substitute the value 0 into the equation for the variable and simplify. If the result is 1=1, then the original value is the answer.
Solve the equation for the variable. The solution will always produce a true statement.

Step-by-step explanation:

u i do not know

Step-by-step explanation:

its kind of blurry. can you put a clearer pic?

step-by-step explanation:

37/3

step-by-step explanation:

step 1: simplify both sides of the equation.

7x+8(x+

1

4

)=3(6x−9)−8

7x+(8)(x)+(8)(

1

4

)=(3)(6x)+(3)(−9)+−8(distribute)

7x+8x+2=18x+−27+−8

(7x+8x)+(2)=(18x)+(−27+−8)(combine like terms)

15x+2=18x+−35

15x+2=18x−35

tep 2: subtract 18x from both sides.

15x+2−18x=18x−35−18x

−3x+2=−35

step 3: subtract 2 from both sides.

−3x+2−2=−35−2

−3x=−37

step 4: divide both sides by -3.

−3x

−3

=
