5 (x-4) + 3x-9x=6 - (2x+5) + 8x

The value of x is - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to solve the given equation and find value of x

5 (x-4) + 3x-9x=6 - (2x+5) + 8x

First solving the brackets

5x-20+3x-9x = 6-2x-5+8x

Now combining the like terms,

5x+3x-9x-20 = - 2x+8x+6-5

8x-9x-20 = 6x + 1

-x-20=6x+1

Now moving x terms on one side and constants on other

6x+x=-20-1

7x = - 21

Dividing both sides by 7

7x/7 = - 21/7

x = - 3

So, the value of x is - 3
