Question

Explain how to solve for x in the equation, 4x-3(x+5)=10

Answer 1

Answer:

$x=25$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given Equation:

$4x-3(x+5)=10$

Solving the equation for 'x'

$4x-3(x)-3(5)=10\\\\4x-3x-15=10$

Solving the like terms:

$x-15=10$

Adding '15' both sides:

$x-15+15=10+15\\\\x=10+15\\\\x=25$

The solution of the equation is: $x=25$

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

4x-3(x+5)=10

or, 4x-3x-15=10

or, x=10+15

therefore x=25
