Answer:
For the first problem the answer is x=4
The second Problem the answer is no solutions
Step-by-step explanation:
7x−(3x+5)−8=1/2 (8x+20)−7x+5
7x+−3x+−5+−8=1/2(8x) +(1/2) (20)+−7x+5(Distribute)
7x+−3x+−5+−8=4x+10+−7x+5
(7x+−3x)+(−5+−8)=(4x+−7x)+(10+5)(Combine Like Terms)
4x+−13=−3x+15
4x−13=−3x+15
Step 2: Add 3x to both sides.
4x−13+3x=−3x+15+3x
7x−13=15
Add 13 to both sides.
7x−13+13=15+13
7x=28 Divide both sides by 7.
x=4
5(3x+4) -2x = 7x -3(-2x+11)
Simplify both sides of the equation.
5(3x+4)−2x=7x−3(−2x+11)
(5)(3x)+(5)(4)+−2x=7x+(−3)(−2x)+(−3)(11)(Distribute)
15x+20+−2x=7x+6x+−33
(15x+−2x)+(20)=(7x+6x)+(−33)(Combine Like Terms)
13x+20=13x+−33
13x+20=13x−33
Subtract 13x from both sides.
13x+20−13x=13x−33−13x
20=−33
Step 3: Subtract 20 from both sides.
20−20=−33−20
0=−53
There are no solutions.
