the correct answer
x = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
5x+4x-68=34-8x, combine like terms
9x-68=34-8x, add 68 to both sides
9x=102-8x, add 8x to both sides
17x=102, divide both sides by 17
x=6
your friend's answer is the same work, but instead of adding 68 to both sides, it was subtracted from 34 giving a -34 instead of 102.
9x=-34-8x
17x= -34
x = -2
