Question

Question #8 is 5(x + 2) = 30

Answer 1

Explanation:

Question:-

`\\ \tt{:}\leadsto 5(x+2)=30`

SOLUTION:-

`\\ \tt{:}\leadsto 5(x+2)=30`

`\\ \tt{:}\leadsto 5x+10=30`

`\\ \tt{:}\leadsto 5x=30-10`

`\\ \tt{:}\leadsto 5x=20`

`\\ \tt{:}\leadsto x=(20)/(5)`

`\\ \tt{:}\leadsto x=4`

Answer 2

`\huge\text{Hey there!}`

`\large\textsf{5(x + 2) = 30}\\\large\textsf{5(x) + 5(2) = 30}\\\large\textsf{5x + 10 = 30}\\\large\text{SUBTRACT 10 to BOTH SIDES}\\\large\textsf{5x + 10 - 10 = 30 - 10}\\\large\text{CANCEL out: 10 - 10 because it gives you 0}\\\large\text{KEEP: 30 - 10 because it helps you solve for your x-value}\\\large\text{NEW EQUATION: \textsf{5x = 30 - 10}}\\\large\text{SIMPLIFY IT}\uparrow\\\large\textsf{5x = 20}\\\large\text{DIVIDE 5 to BOTH SIDES}\\\mathsf{(5x)/(5) = (20)/(5)}`
