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! :)
