Question

2{5x-8}+6=10..Solve the equation

Answer 1

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

2{5x-8}+6=10

On transposing 6 to RHS and removing the bracket on LHS, we have,

2(5x) - 2(8) = 10-6

10x-16 = 4

On transposing -16 to RHS, we have,

10x = 4+16

10x = 20

On dividing both sides by 10, we have,

10x/10 = 20/10

x = 2

Therefore, the value of x is 2.

Hope it helps you.

Good Luck.

Answer 2

Answer:

16/5

Step-by-step explanation:

10x - 16 =10+6

10x-16=16

10x= 16+16

x =16/5
