Full solution

Q. Solve for s s .\newline84s=s+13s= \begin{array}{l} 8-4 s=s+13 \\ s=\square \end{array}
  1. Write Equation: Write down the equation.\newline84s=s+138 - 4s = s + 13
  2. Rearrange Equation: Move all terms containing ss to one side of the equation and constant terms to the other side.\newline84ss=s+13s8 - 4s - s = s + 13 - s\newlineThis simplifies to:\newline85s=138 - 5s = 13
  3. Isolate Term with ss: Subtract 88 from both sides of the equation to isolate the term with ss.
    85s8=1388 - 5s - 8 = 13 - 8
    This simplifies to:
    5s=5-5s = 5
  4. Solve for s: Divide both sides of the equation by 5-5 to solve for s.\newline5s/5=5/5-5s / -5 = 5 / -5\newlineThis simplifies to:\newlines=1s = -1
