-5x-5= 3x+19

= > -5x-3x= 19+5

= > -8x= 24

-5x - 5 = 3x + 19

---Move the x's to one side

-5x - 3x - 5 = 3x - 3x + 19

-8x - 5 = 19

---Isolate the -8x by removing the -5 from the left side

-8x - 5 + 5 = 19 + 5

-8x = 24

---Divide both sides by -8 to get x by itself

x = -3

Hope this helps!

5(3x+8)=175 <br>with steps pls

ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

x=9

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

5(3x+8)=175

(5)(3x)+(5)(8)=175(Distribute)

15x+40=175

Step 2: Subtract 40 from both sides.

15x+40−40=175−40

15x=135

Step 3: Divide both sides by 15.

15x/15=135/15

x=9
