Question

Solve : 10 x-5-7 x=5 x+15-8

Answer 1

10x - 5 -7x = 5x +15 -8

3x - 5 = 5x + 7

-2x = 7+5

-2x = 12

x = -6

Answer 2

Given Equation,

$\boxed{\bold{10x-5-7x=5x+15-8}}$

We have to write together the terms with x in the left side and terms without x in the right side.

$\bold{\implies{10x-7x-5x = 15-8+5}}$

$\implies{\bold{-2x=12}}$

$\implies{\bold{x=\frac{12}{-2}}$

$\boxed{\bold{\therefore{x=-6}}}$
