Question

3(5x-5) - 2(9x-8) = 4(8x-13) - 17

Answer 1

Answer:

x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

3(5x-5)-2(9x-8)=4(8x-13)-17

15x-15-18x+16=32x-52-17

-15+16+52+17=32x-15x+18x

70=35x

70/35=x

2=x

Answer 2

Answer:

The value of the equation will be 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

As per the data given in the question,

We have to find the value of the equation,

$3(5x-5) - 2(9x-8) = 4(8x-13) - 17$

By distributing the terms, we get

=> $(15x-15) - (18x-16) = (32x-52) - 17$

=> $15x-15 - 18x-16 = 32x-52 - 17$

Add the numbers, we get

=> $15x+1- 18x = 32x-52 - 17$

Combining the like terms,

=> $-3x+1 = 32x-52 - 17$

Subtract the numbers,

=> $-3x+1 = 32x-69$

Subtract $1$ from both sides,

=> $-3x+1-1 = 32x-69-1$

=> $-3x = 32x-70$

Subtract $32x$ from both sides,

=> $-3x -32x= 32x-70-32x$

=> $-35x = -70$

Divide both sides by $-35$,

=> $x = 2$

Hence, the required solution is 2.
