Answer:

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

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

2.5(6x−4)=10+4(1.5+0.5x)

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

2.5(6x−4)=10+4(1.5+0.5x)

(2.5)(6x)+(2.5)(−4)=10+(4)(1.5)+(4)(0.5x)(Distribute)

15x+−10=10+6+2x

15x−10=(2x)+(10+6)(Combine Like Terms)

15x−10=2x+16

Step 2: Subtract 2x from both sides.

15x−10−2x=2x+16−2x

13x−10=16

Step 3: Add 10 to both sides.

13x−10+10=16+10

13x=26

Step 4: Divide both sides by 13.

x=2
