Question

4x - 2(x - 5) = - 7 + 5x + 8 type the value of x

Answer 1

Answer:

The value of 'x' = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Explanation:-

Given that

              4x - 2(x - 5) = - 7 + 5x + 8

              4x - 2(x) +10 = - 7 + 5x + 8

                   2 x + 10 = 1 + 5 x

Subtracting '2x' on both sides , we get

             2 x - 2 x + 10 = 1 + 5 x - 2 x

                  10 = 1 + 3 x

                 10 -1 = 3x

                   9 = 3 x

Dividing '3' on both sides, we get

                 $\frac{9}{3} = \frac{3x}{3}$

               3 = x

∴ The value of 'x' = 3
