Question

Find the value of x in this equation. 25(4x − 3) − 2x = 45 − x

Answer 1

Answer:

x=40/33

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

25(4x−3)−2x=45−x

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

25(4x−3)−2x=45−x

(25)(4x)+(25)(−3)+−2x=45+−x(Distribute)

100x+−75+−2x=45+−x

(100x+−2x)+(−75)=−x+45(Combine Like Terms)

98x+−75=−x+45

98x−75=−x+45

Step 2: Add x to both sides.

98x−75+x=−x+45+x

99x−75=45

Step 3: Add 75 to both sides.

99x−75+75=45+75

99x=120

Step 4: Divide both sides by 99.

Answer 2

Answer:

x=1.2121212121212....

Step-by-step explanation:

25(4x-3)-2x=45-x

            +x          +x

25(4x-3)-x=45

      /25     /25

4x-3-(x/25)=1.8

(99x/25)-3=1.8

            +3+3

99x/25=4.8

     *25 *25

99x=120

/99   /99

x=1.2121212121212....
