Question

Solve 5(2x – 3) = 5x – 10 for x.

Answer 1

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

To solve for x, first distribute the 5 to the 2x and 3.

10x - 15 = 5x - 10

Now, add 15 to both sides and subtract 5x to both sides of the equation.

5x = 5

Divide both sides of the equation by 5.

x = 1

The answer is x = 1

Answer 2

x=1

Explanation:

5(2x – 3) = 5x – 10

Distribute

10x -15 = 5x-10

Subtract 5x from each side

10x-15-5x = 5x-5x-10

5x -15 = -10

Add 15 to each side

5x-15+15 =-10+15

5x = 5

Divide by 5

5x/5 = 5/5

x=1
