13. (07.05 MC) What is the solution to the equation 5x + 2(x - 4) = 5x + x - 10? (1 point) O

TEA [102]

Answer:

x = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

5x + 2(x - 4) = 5x + x - 10

First, we need to to multiply out the parathesis in the equation:

5x + 2(x - 4) = 5x + x - 10

5x + 2x - 8 = 5x + x - 10

Next, we can combine "like terms" to simplify the equation further:

5x + 2x - 8 = 5x + x - 10

7x - 8 = 6x - 10

Now we can isolate the variable "x" to one side:

7x - 8 = 6x - 10

x - 8 = -10

x = -2

To check our work, we can replace x with -2 in our original equation:

5x + 2(x - 4) = 5x + x - 10

5(-2) + 2 (-2 - 4) = 5(-2) + -2 - 10

-10 + 2 (-6) = -10 -2 - 10

-22 = -22

I hope this helps!
