Question

If 2x-5=3(x-5) Then what is the value of x

Answer 1

Answer:

x=10

Step-by-step explanation:

Given, 2x−5=3(x−5)

⇒2x−5=3x−15.

Transpose x terms on one side, we get

⇒3x−2x=−5+15

⇒x=10.

Therefore, value of x is 10.

Answer 2

Answer:

=> The value of x is 10.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:-

$2x-5=3(x-5)$

To find:- The value of the expression:

Here we will use the transposition method.

As we have,

=> $2x-5=3(x-5)$

Distributing the terms, we get

=> $2x-5=3x-15$

Add both sides by $5$,

=> $2x-5+5=3x-15+5$

=> $2x=3x-15+5$

Add the numbers,

=> $2x=3x-10$

Subtract both sides by $3x$, we get

=> $2x-3x=3x-10-3x$

=> $-x = -10$

Divide both sides by $-1$, we get

=> $x = 10$

Hence, the required solution is 10.
