Question

-5(x - 10) = -35
What is x representing?

Answer 1

Answer: x is representing here.

Step-by-step explanation: as the equation is -5(x-10) = -35

(-) sign in both sides will cancel out each other so the equation will become 5(x-10)= 35

now we will solve the equation

5x-50 = 35

5x = 35+50

5x = 85

x=85/5 = x =

Answer 2

Answer: x is 17

Divide both sides by -5: x = 17
