Question

17(x+4)+8(x+6)=11(x+5)+15(x+3)

Answer 1

HEY MATE HERE IS YOUR ANSWER...


17(x+4)+8(x+6)=11(x+5)+15(x+3)

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

17(x+4)+8(x+6)=11(x+5)+15(x+3)

(17)(x)+(17)(4)+(8)(x)+(8)(6)=(11)(x)+(11)(5)+(15)(x)+(15)(3)(Distribute)

17x+68+8x+48=11x+55+15x+45

(17x+8x)+(68+48)=(11x+15x)+(55+45)(Combine Like Terms)

25x+116=26x+100

25x+116=26x+100

Step 2: Subtract 26x from both sides.

25x+116−26x=26x+100−26x

−x+116=100

Step 3: Subtract 116 from both sides.

−x+116−116=100−116

−x=−16

Step 4: Divide both sides by -1.

−x−1=−16−1

x=16
