Answer:
x=-27
Step-by-step explanation:
to understand this
you need to know about:
given:
- [tex] - 8 = \frac{x}{3} + 1[/tex]
to solve
let's solve:
[tex] step - 1 : define \\ - 8 = \frac{x}{3} + 1[/tex]
[tex]step - 2 : \\ rewrite[/tex]
[tex]\frac{x}{3} + 1= - 8[/tex]
[tex]step - 3 : \\ subtract \: 1 \: from \: both \: sides[/tex]
[tex] \frac{x}{3} + 1 - 1 = - 8 - 1[/tex]
[tex] \frac{x}{3} = - 9[/tex]
[tex]step - 4 : \\ multiply \: both \: sides \: by \: 3[/tex]
[tex] \frac{x}{3} \times 3 = - 9 \times 3[/tex]
[tex] \huge \therefore x = - 27[/tex]
