Q. 8x27=x+8 8 x-27=x+8
  1. Get xx terms together: First, let's get all the xx terms on one side by subtracting xx from both sides.\newline8x27x=x+8x8x - 27 - x = x + 8 - x\newline7x27=87x - 27 = 8
  2. Isolate x: Next, we'll isolate x by adding 2727 to both sides.\newline7x27+27=8+277x - 27 + 27 = 8 + 27\newline7x=357x = 35
  3. Divide by 77: Finally, divide both sides by 77 to solve for xx.7x7=357\frac{7x}{7} = \frac{35}{7}x=5x = 5
