The value of x is 9.
We have : - 25 = 7 - (5x - 13)
We have to find the value of x.
<h3>If f(x) = g(x), than what do you understand by true solution of this equation?</h3>The true Solution of the equation is the value of x for which LHS = RHS.
For example - if ax + b = cx + d , then
ax - cx = d - b
x = is the true solution of the equation.
In the question given -
- 25 = 7 - (5x - 13)
- 25 = 7 - 5x + 13
5x = 45
x = 9
Hence, the value of x for which LHS = RHS is 9.
