Answer 2

`x = (13)/(4)`

Explanation:

`4(x + 5) = 6(2x - 1)`

Expand the terms in the bracket

That's

`4x + 20 = 12x - 6`

Subtract 12x from both sides of the equation

`4x - 12x + 20 = 12x - 12x - 6 \\ - 8x + 20 = - 6`

Subtract 20 from both sides

`- 8x + 20 - 20 = - 6 - 20 \\ - 8x = - 26`

Divide both sides by - 8

`( - 8x)/( - 8) = ( - 26)/( - 8) \\ x = (26)/(8)`

We have the final answer as

`x = (13)/(4)`
