Answer:
2x - 5 = (1/2)
4x - 10 [multiply by 2]
x - 10 = -13 [subtract 3x from both sides]
x = -3 [add 10 to both sides]
Step-by-step explanation:
The variable your solving for should be on the left side, so just flip it
c=a/b
First you would simplify the equation <span>(7x²+2x+5)+(3x²-8x-10) lets start with the first part
</span><span>(7x²+2x+5)
</span>7x² + 2x which = 49x + 2x which also = 51x Then you add the last part (+5)
51x + 5
Now you simplify the last part.
<span>(3x²-8x-10)
</span>3x²-8x which=9x - 8x which also = 1x or simply x Then add the last part (-10) Which you'll get x-10
51x + 5) + (x - 10) = 52x -5
so your answer is 52x - 5
Multiply the 8 by each term to get 8x -24
The answer is A. 8x-24
