what is the solution set of 8x-2=5x-53

Question

that is it

Answer 1

8x-2=5x-53,

8x-5x=2-53,

3x=-51,

x=-17. The solution set is {-17}. There is only one solution.

The solution set for 8x-2<5x-53 is x<-17 or {All x∈(-∞,-17)}.

The solution set for 8x-2≤5x-53 is x≤-17 or {All x∈(-∞,-17]}.

The solution set for 8x-2>5x-53 is x>-17 or {All x∈(-17,∞)}.

The solution set for 8x-2≥5x-53 is x≥-17 or {All x∈[-17,∞)}.
