Answer 1

The value of x = 34

Explanation:

=> 2(x+5) = 3x -24

=> 2x + 10 = 3x - 24

=> 10 + 24 = 3x - 2x

=> 34 = x

Answer 2

Answer: x = 34

So first you want to distribute:

2(x + 5) = 3x - 24

2x + 10 = 3x - 24

Now subtract 10 from both sides:

2x + 10 = 3x - 24

2x + 10 - 10 = 3x - 24 - 10

After subtracting the numbers, you will get:

2x = 3x - 34

Now subtract 3x from both sides:

2x - 3x = 3x - 34 - 3x

Then you want to combine like terms and simplify:

-x = -34

Now you want to divide both sides by the same factor:

-x = -34

-x / 1 = -34 / 1

Now simplify:

x = 34
