Answer 1

Answer:-

$\red{\bigstar}$ The Solution of the given equation is $\large\leadsto\boxed{\rm\purple{x = \: - 1.25}}$

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

• Given:-

• - 5x + 10 = - 13x

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

• Solution:-

➪ $\sf - 5x + 10 = - 13x$

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

➪ $\sf - 5x + 10 + 13x = 0$

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

➪ $\sf 8x + 10 = 0$

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

➪ $\sf 8x = - 10$

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

➪ $\sf x = \dfrac{-10}{8}$

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

★ $\bold\red{\large{x = - 1.25}}$

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

✯ Therefore, the the solution of the given equation is x = - 1.25

Answer 2

Answer:

-1.25 =x

Step-by-step explanation:

-5x + 10 = -13x

Add 5x to each side

-5x + 10+5x = -13x+5x

10 = -8x

Divide by -8

10/ -8 = -8x/-8

-5/4 =x

-1.25 =x
