Question

Please solve this sum for me :- 20-(2x-5)=24

Answer 1

Answer:

20-(2x-5)=24

20-2x+5=24

20-2x=24-5

-2x=19-20

-2x=-1

2x=1

X=1/2

X=0.5

Answer 2

Answer:

=> The value of x is $\frac{1}{2} .$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:-

$20-(2x-5)=24$

To find:- The value of the expression,

For solving this expression, we must apply the transposition method:

As we have,

=> $20-(2x-5)=24$

=> $20-2x-5=24$

Add the numbers, we get

=> $25-2x = 24$

Rearrange the terms, we get

=> $-2x+25 = 24$

Subtract both sides by $25$,

=> $-2x+25 -25= 24-25$

Simplifying it further, we get

=> $-2x = -1$

Divide both sides by $-2$,

=> $x = \frac{1}{2}$

Hence, the required solution is $\frac{1}{2} .$
