Question

If x – 10 = 5x - 10, what is the value of x?

Answer 1

`\boxed {x = 0}`

Explanation:

Solve for the value of
`x`:

`x - 10 = 5x - 10`

-Take
`5x` and subtract it from
`x`:

`x - 10 - 5x = 5x - 5x - 10`

`-4x - 10 = -10`

-Add
`10` to both sides:

`-4x - 10 + 10 = -10 + 10`

`4x = 0`

-Since
`4x` does not equal to
`0`, then
`x` must equal to
`0`:

`\boxed {x = 0}`
