Question

3(x-3)+4(2x+1)=5
solve the following equation​

Answer 1

Answer:

$3(x - 3) + 4(2x + 1) = 5 \\ \\ = > 3x - 9 + 8x + 4 = 5 \\ \\ = > 3x + 8x = 9 - 4 + 5 \\ \\ = > 11x = 5 + 5 = 10 \\ \\ = > x = \frac{10}{11}$

Answer 2

Answer: x = 10/11

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1 : Distribute

3(x-3) + 4(2x+1) = 5

3x - 9 +4 (2x+1) = 5

Step 2 : Again Distribute

3x - 9 +4 (2x+1) = 5

3x - 9 + 8x + 4 = 5

Step 3 : Add the numbers

3x - 9 + 8x + 4 = 5

3x - 5 + 8x = 5

Step 4 : Combine like terms

3x - 5 + 8x = 5

11x - 5 = 5

Step 5 : Add 5 to both sides of the equation

11x - 5 = 5

11x - 5 + 5 = 5 + 5

Step 6 : Simplify

11x - 5 + 5 = 5 + 5

11x = 5 + 5

11x = 10

Step 7 : Divide both sides of the equation by the same term

11x = 10

11x/11 = 10/11

Step 8 : Simplify again

11x/11 = 10/11

x = 10/11

∴ x = 10/11
