The teacher will be very surprised to see your correct solution 😉
The solution
Detail solution
Given the linear equation:
16*x-3 = 8*x-43
Move free summands (without x)
from left part to right part, we given:
$$16 x = 8 x - 40$$
Move the summands with the unknown x
from the right part to the left part:
$$8 x = -40$$
Divide both parts of the equation by 8
x = -40 / (8)
We get the answer: x = -5
