{\boxed{\mathfrak{✿ฺSolution :}}}


\bold{ 19x+28 = 20 x - 53 }


\bold{ 19x+28 - 28 =20x - 53 - 28}


\bold{ 19x = 20x - 81 }


\bold{ 19x - 20x = 20x - 81 - 20x }


\bold{ -x = - 81 }


\bold{ ( - x)/( - 1) = ( - 81)/( - 1) }


\bold{ x = 81 }

Answer:

x = 81

Explanation:

Given:


\displaystyle \large{19x+28=20x-53}

Subtract both sides by 28:


\displaystyle \large{19x+28-28=20x-53-28}\\\displaystyle \large{19x=20x-81}

Subtract both sides by 19x:


\displaystyle \large{19x-19x=20x-81-19x}\\\displaystyle \large{0=x-81}

Add both sides by 81:


\displaystyle \large{0+81=x-81+81}\\\displaystyle \large{81=x}\\\displaystyle \large{\therefore x=81}

Therefore, the solution is x = 81
