Question

2(x-3)+3(x+1)=5(2x-1)​

Answer 1

Answer:

$\Huge \boxed{X=\frac{2}{5}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, first you have to isolate by the x on one side of the equation.

Remember to solve this problem, use distributive property of $\displaystyle a(b+c)=ab+ac$.

First, expand.

2(x-3)+3(x+1)=5x-3

5(2x-1)

5*2=10

5*-1=-5

=10x-5

In fact, rewrite the problem down.

5x-3=10x-5

Add 3 from both sides.

5x-3+3=10x-5+3

Solve.

-5+3=-2

5x=10x-2

Then, subtract 10x from both sides.

5x-10x=10x-2-10x

Solve.

-5x=-2

Now, divide by -5 from both sides.

-5x/-5=-2/-5

Solve.

-2/-5=2/5

x=2/5

It change negative to positive sign.

As a result, the correct answer is x=2/5.

Hope this helps!

Have a wonderful blessing day! :)

Good luck! :)

Thanks!
