Answer:
[tex]x=39[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]-2\left(x+5\right)-4+3\left(x-8\right)=1[/tex]
Add 4 to both sides:
[tex]-2\left(x+5\right)-4+3\left(x-8\right)+4=1+4[/tex]
[tex]-2\left(x+5\right)+3\left(x-8\right)=5[/tex]
Expand:
[tex]-2x-10+3\left(x-8\right)=5[/tex]
[tex]-2x-10+3x-24=5[/tex]
[tex]x-34=5[/tex]
Add 34 to both sides:
[tex]x-34+34=5+34[/tex]
[tex]x=39[/tex]
