Need some solve the equation. 5x + 8 − 3x = −10 x = −9 x = −1 x = 1 x = 9

A )  x = -9.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given  : 5x + 8 − 3x = −10

To find : Solve the equation.

Solution : We have given  

5x + 8 − 3x = −10

Combine likes terms .

5x - 3x + 8 = - 10 .

2x + 8 = -10 .

On subtracting both sides by 8

2x + 8 - 8 = -10 - 8.

2x = - 18 ,

On dividing both sides by 2 ,

x= - 9.

Therefore, A )  x = -9.

costs the what? what is the cost of the pants?

step-by-step explanation:

if it is $10, then the price is 14.

take 40% of the cost, and then add the cost.
