Answer:
This how you get x. First the way to find the answer is to first put 5x by itself by canceling it out and putting it on the other side of the = which will be
5x-(x-18)=
-5x -5
Which then gets you this
-(x-18)=-5x
After that its
x-18=-5x
once you have this subtract x
x-18=-5x
-x -x
-18=-6x
Then it leaves you the easy part of just dividing
-18/-6x=-6x/-6x
After dividing you get x to be 3
x=3
Once you have x=3 input that number into your equation and you get the answer.
Hope this helps
I believe your answer is D
Since all the answer have the letter r in it, r would be the unknown number.
In math the "/" line represents division.
So 50 divided by an unknown number would become 50/r/
The answer is D.
