What is the solution for 3(x-1) - 8 = 4(1+×) +5?

x=-20

Step-by-step explanation:

First simplify the equation to the form, which is simple to understand

3(x-1)-8=4(1+x)+5

Then Reorder the terms in parentheses

+(+3x-3)-8=4*(1+x)+5

After that Remove unnecessary parentheses

+3x-3-8=+4+*(+1+x+)+5

Next Reorder the terms in parentheses

+3x-3-8=+(+4+4x)+5

Then Remove unnecessary parentheses

+3x-3-8=+4+4x+5

Next move all terms containing x to the left and all other terms to the right.

+3x-4x=+4+5+3+8

Then simplify left and right side of the equation.

-1x=+20

Lastly divide both sides of the equation by -1 to get x.

x=-20
