Question

Solve the equation for x, and enter your answer below.7 x -5= 65​

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

7 x -5  = 65

7 times what? (x) - 5 equals 65

Well we know that x has to be less than 65 and more than 7 and -5.

So 7 must be multiplied by numbers 8, and up.

7 * 8 -5  = 51, NOT 65.

7 * 9 -5  = 58, NOT 65.

7 * 10 -5  = Does equal 65.

Therefore, x is equivalent to 10.

Answer 2

x=10

Step-by-step explanation:

7x - 5=65

+5 +5 so the 5's cancel so add 5 to 65

7x =70 because you add 5 to 65 to get 70

7x 7

7 x cancels out so you answer will be

x=10
