Question

Solve for x.
5(x - 10) = 30 - 15x
Ox=1
O x=4
O x=5
O x = 8

Answer 1

Answer:

B) x = 4

Explanations:

The given equation is:

5(x - 10) = 30 - 15x

Open the brackets by expanding the equation

5x - 50 = 30 - 15x

Collect like terms

5x + 15x = 30 + 50

20x = 80

Divide both sides by 20

20x / 20 = 80 / 20

x = 4
