how do you do this math problem

8x+9=5x+6

8x+9=5x+6

Combine like terms:

8x - 5x = 6 - 9
3x = -3
x = -1

complete each ordered pair so that it is a solution to the equation 3x+5y=11

A. (4,?)

how do you do that problem ?

To solve the math problem 8x + 9 = 5x + 6, you need to find the value of x.

The goal is to isolate the variable x on one side of the equation. Start by collecting the terms with x on one side and the constants on the other side of the equation.

Step 1: Move the constant term to the other side:
8x + 9 - 9 = 5x + 6 - 9
8x = 5x - 3

Step 2: Move the term with x to one side:
8x - 5x = -3
3x = -3

Step 3: Solve for x by dividing both sides of the equation by the coefficient of x:
3x / 3 = -3 / 3
x = -1

So, the solution is x = -1.
