Answer 1

x = 2 I hope this helped you :)

Answer 2

`\qquad \qquad\qquad\large\overbrace{\underbrace{\underline{ \boxed{ \sf \:Aƞsweɾ }}}}`

Let's solve ~

`\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: 5(4 - 3x) = - 10`

`\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: 20- 15x = - 10`

`\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: - 15x = - 10 - 20`

`\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: - 15x = - 30`

`\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: x = - 30 / ( - 15)`

`\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: x = 2`

Therefore, the value of x is 2
