Question

Which value of x makes the equation -5(x-3)=-25​

Answer 1

Answer:

x=8

Step-by-step explanation:

-5(x-3)=-25

Divide each side by -5

-5/-5(x-3)=-25/-5

x-3 = 5

Add 3 to each side

x-3+3 = 5+3

x = 8

Answer 2

Answer:

$x = - 5.6$

Step-by-step explanation:

$- 5(x - 3) = - 25 \\ - 5x + 3 = - 25 \\ - 5x = - 25 - 3 \\ - 5x = - 28 \\ \frac{ - 5x}{ - 5} = \frac{ - 28}{ - 5} \\ x = - 5.6$
