Question

5(x-4)=35 find the value of x.

Answer 1

To find : value of $x$ .

Given : $5 (x -4 )=35$

• Here, we will use the below following steps to find a solution using the transposition method:

1. We will Identify the variables and constants in the given equation.
2. Then we differentiate the equation as LHS and RHS.
3. We take constants at RHS leaving variable at LHS.  
4. Simplify the equation using arithmetic operation as required to find the value of $x$ .
5. Then the result will be the solution for the given linear equation. By using the transposition method. we get,  

• $5 (x -4 )=35$

       $x -4 = \frac{35}{5} \\x-4 =7 \\x = 7 +4 \\x = 11$

Hence, value of $x$ is $11$ .

Answer 2

As per the data given in the above question.

In the above question, it is given that,

The given data is 5(x-4)=35,

We have to find the value of x in the given equation​.

Thus, solving the equation we get,

$5(x-4)=35$

Solving further we get,

$5x-20=35\\5x=35+40\\5x=75\\x=\frac{75}{5}\\x=15$

Hence the value of x is 15.
