Question

2(x-5) + 3(x-2) = 8+7(x-4)this is linear equation​

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

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

Open the brackets,

==> (2x-10) + (3x-6) = 8 + (7x-28)

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

==> 5x-16 = 7x-20

Getting x's on one side,

==> 5x-7x = -20+16

==> -2x = -4

Therefore,

x=2
