Question

2(x + 5) = 5x + 23 Please answer ASAP I do not know the answer and need help

Answer 1

Answer:

X = -4 1/3 or -4.333 or -13/3

Step-by-step explanation:

2(x+5) = 5x+23

2x + 10 = 5x+23

2x-2x + 10 = 5x-2x +23

10 = 3x + 23

10-23 = 3x + 23-23

-13 = 3x

-13/3 = 3x/3

x = -4 1/3 or -4.3333

Answer 2

Answer:

X =$-\frac{13}{3}$ or -4.3 ( with a line above the 3)
