Question

What does x equal 10x-5=65

Answer 1

Explanation:

`10x - 5 = 65 \\ \\ \therefore \: 10x = 65 + 5 \\ \\ \therefore \: 10x = 70 \\ \\ \therefore \:x = (70)/(10) \\ \\ \huge \red{ \boxed{ \therefore \:x = 7}}`

Answer 2

Explanation:

1. Add 5 to both sides to get 10x alone: 10x = 70
2. Divide both sides by ten to get x alone: x = 7
3. The final answer is x = 7.
