Question

2(x - 5) + 3(x - 2) = 8 + 7 (x - 4)​

Answer 1

Question -:

2 (x - 5) + 3 (x - 2) = 8 + 7 (x - 4).

$\huge\orange{\underline{\overline{\tt\: Answer}}\mid}$

$2 \: (x - 5) + 3 \: (x - 2) = 8 + 7 \: (x - 4)$

$2x - 10 + 3x - 6 = 8 + 7x - 28$

$2x + 3x - 10 - 6 = 8 + 7x - 28$

$5x - 4 = 8 + 7x - 28$

$5x - 7x = 8 - 28 + 4$

$- 2x = - 20 + 4$

$- 2x = - 16$

$x = \frac{ - 16}{ \: \: - 2}$

$x = 8$

Hope it helps!
