Question

8(x-3) -(6-2x) = 2 (x+2) - 5(1-5x)​

Answer 1

Given equation: 8 (x – 3) – (6 – 2x) = 2 (x + 2) – 5 (5 – x)

⇒ 8x – 24 – 6 + 2x = 2x + 4 – 25 + 5x (Removing

brackets)

8x + 2x – 24 – 6 = 2x + 5x + 4 – 25

10x – 30 = 7x – 21

⇒ 10x – 7x = -21 + 30 (Transposing 7x to LHS and 30 to

RHS)

3x = 9

⇒ x =9/3

Transposing 3 to RHS)

x = 3

∴ The solution of 8 (x – 3) – (6 – 2x) = 2 (x + 2) – 5 (5 – x)

is x = 3.

Answer 2

Answer:

x=29/17

Step-by-step explanation:

8x-24-6+2x = 2x+4-5+25x

8x+2x-24-6 = 2x+25x+4-5

10x-30 = 27x-1

10x-27x = -1+30

-17x = -29

x = 29/17
