Answer:

x = -10/3

Step-by-step explanation:

−4(x−5)=−7x+10

Use the distributive property to multiply −4 by x−5.

−4x+20=−7x+10

Add 7x to both sides.

−4x+20+7x=10

Combine −4x and 7x to get 3x.

3x+20=10

Subtract 20 from 10 to get −10.

3x=−10

Divide both sides by 3.

x = -10/3

(2x+4)^2 - (x-5)^2 = 26x<br> Please solve (explained)

Zina [86]

Expand the squared binomials:

$(2x+4)^2=4x^2+16x+16$

$(x-5)^2=x^2-10x+25$

Then

$(4x^2+16x+16)-(x^2-10x+25)=3x^2+26x-9=26x$

$\implies3x^2-9=0$

$\implies3x^2=9$

$\implies x^2=3$

$\implies x=\pm\sqrt3$
