Answer:

x=-8z/5 - 3y/5

Step-by-step explanation:

distributive prop

3x-3y=8x+8z

-5x=3y+8z

divide by -5 on both sides.

x=-8z/5 - 3y/5

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

3(x - y) = 8(x + z)

3x - 3y = 8x + 8z

-3y - 8z = 8x - 3x

-3y - 8z = 5x

(-3y - 8z) / 5 = x ....or could also be written like : x = -3/5y - 8/5z
