5x + 8 - 3x = -10
x = -1
x=1
x=9

solution,

hope this helps..

Good luck on your assignment

x = -9

Step-by-step explanation:

5x + 8 - 3x = -10

Rearrange.

5x - 3x + 8 = -10

Subtract like terms.

2x + 8 = -10

Subtract 8 on both sides.

2x = -10 - 8

2x = -18

Divide 2 into both sides.

x = -18/2

x = -9

n=9

step-by-step explanation:

7 times a number = 7n

decreased by 13 = 7n-13

same as is =

5 times the number = 5n

increased by 5 = 5n+5

7n-13 = 5n+5

2n=18

n=9
