Question

5 (x - 2) - 3 (x - 5) = 0, then value of x is ______ *​

Answer 1

Answer:

x= -5/2 or -2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

$\frac{-5}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying the equation,

5x- 10- 3x+ 15= 0

(5x- 3x)+ (15- 10)= 0

2x+ 5= 0

Subtracting 5 from both sides,

(2x+ 5)- 5= 0-5

2x= -5

Dividing both sides of equation by 2,

$\frac{2x}{2}$= $\frac{-5}{2}$

⇒x= $\frac{-5}{2}$
