Hello there again! :) :D

Answer:

[tex]\boxed{X=5}[/tex]

*The answer must have A POSITIVE SIGN ONLY!*

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you subtract by 1 from both sides of an equation.

[tex]3x+1-1=8x-24-1[/tex]

Add/Subtract by the numbers from left/right.

[tex]24+1=25[/tex]

[tex]3x=8x-25[/tex]

Then, you subtract by 8x from both sides of an equation.

[tex]3x-8x=8x-25-8x[/tex]

Simplify equation.

[tex]-5x=-25[/tex]

Divide by -5 from both sides of an equation.

[tex]\frac{-5x}{-5}=\frac{-25}{-5}[/tex]

Divide by the numbers from left/right.

[tex]-25/-5=5[/tex]

Final answer is → [tex]\boxed{X=5}[/tex]

Hope this helps you!

Have a nice day! :)
