Question

Not sure need help ​

Answer 1

x=10

Explanation:

You distribute the 2 to what's inside the parentheses.

so 2(x-5)=10 becomes

2x - 10=10 now you add 10 to both sides to get 2x by itself

+10 +10

2x=20 Now you divide both sides by 2 to get x by itself

x=10

Check: 2(10-5) =10

20-10=10

10=10 ✔

Hope this helps :)

Answer 2

X=10

Explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

2(x−5)=10

(2)(x)+(2)(−5)=10(Distribute)

2x+−10=10

2x−10=10

Step 2: Add 10 to both sides.

2x−10+10=10+10

2x=20

Step 3: Divide both sides by 2.

2x/2=20/2

x=10
