Solve 8(4x 1)-18x-5

Evaluate

8 (4 x \times 1) - 18 x - 5

To find the roots of the expression,set the expression equal to 0

8 (4 x \times 1) - 18 x - 5 = 0

Multiply the terms

8 \times 4 x - 18 x - 5 = 0

Multiply the numbers

32 x - 18 x - 5 = 0

Subtract the terms

More Steps

14 x - 5 = 0

Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign

14 x = 0 + 5

Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression

14 x = 5

Divide both sides

\frac{14 x}{14} = \frac{5}{14}

Solution

x = \frac{5}{14}

Alternative Form

x = 0.3 \dot{5} 7142 \dot{8}
