Respuesta :

The solution to the given linear equation is x=1

Solution to linear equation

Linear equations are equations that has a leading degree of 1.

Given the linear equation as shown below;

8x - 5= 2x + 1

Subtract 2x from both sides

8x - 2x - 5 = 2x + 1-2x

6x - 5  = 1

Add 5 to both sides

6x - 5 + 5 = 5 + 1

6x  = 6

Divide both sides by 6

6x/6 = 6/6

x = 1

Hence the solution to the given linear equation is x=1
