Mathematics
1 answer:
jek_recluse [69]4 years ago
3 0

Answer:x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

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

distribute 2(5x-7)

=2*5x - 2*7

  ∨       ∨

  10x - 14

10x - 14 = 2x + 10

add 14 to both sides

10x-14=2x+10

    +14      +14

simplify

10x=2x+24

subtract 2x to both sides

10x=2x+24

-2x -2x

simplify

8x=24

divide both sides by 8

 8x=24

÷8x ÷ 8x

x = 3
