8bglo = -2bglo + 2bglox

Solving
8bglo = -2bglo + 2bglox

Solving for variable 'b'.

Move all terms containing b to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '2bglo' to each side of the equation.
8bglo + 2bglo = -2bglo + 2bglo + 2bglox

Combine like terms: 8bglo + 2bglo = 10bglo
10bglo = -2bglo + 2bglo + 2bglox

Combine like terms: -2bglo + 2bglo = 0
10bglo = 0 + 2bglox
10bglo = 2bglox

Add '-2bglox' to each side of the equation.
10bglo + -2bglox = 2bglox + -2bglox

Combine like terms: 2bglox + -2bglox = 0
10bglo + -2bglox = 0

Factor out the Greatest Common Factor (GCF), '2bglo'.
2bglo(5 + -1x) = 0

Ignore the factor 2.

Subproblem 1

Set the factor 'bglo' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying bglo = 0 Solving bglo = 0 Move all terms containing b to the left, all other terms to the right. Simplifying bglo = 0 The solution to this equation could not be determined. This subproblem is being ignored because a solution could not be determined.

Subproblem 2
