x=1
5x+8/2=5x+4
9-4= 5
So now you have 5x=5 divide both sides by 5. And you’ll have x=1

Answer:

x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

5x + 8/2 = 9         Original Equation

5x + 4 = 9             Simplified

5x ( + 4 - 4 ) = ( 9 - 4 )  Subracting 4 from both sides

5x = 5    Simplified

5x/5 = 5/5    Dividing 5 on both sides

x = 1 Simplified

Check:

5(1) + 8/2 = 9

5 + 4 = 9

9 = 9

Correct!
