Question

B. If 5(x-2) = 3(x-4), then what is the value of x.
Pls help me in this​

Answer 1

Answer:

Answer is given below

Step-by-step explanation:

a) 2(x+3) = 10

2x + 6 = 10

(subtracting 6 on both sides)

2x + 6 - 6 = 10 - 6

2x = 4

(dividing by 2 on both sides)

x = 4/2 = 2

b) 5(x-2) = 3(x-4)

5x - 10 = 3x - 12

(subtracting by 3x on both sides)

5x - 3x - 10 = 3x - 3x -12

2x - 10 = -12

(adding 10 on both sides)

2x - 10 + 10 = -12 + 10

2x = -2

(dividing by 2 on both sides)

x = -2/2 = -1
