Question

Solve: 2(x+2)+5 (x+5) = 4(x-8) +2(x-2)
​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

2x+4+5x+25=4x-32+2x-4

7x+29=6x-36

x=-65

Answer 2

Answer:

2(x+2)+5 (x+5) = 4(x-8) +2(x-2)

​x = -63

Step-by-step explanation:

2(x+2)+5 (x+5) = 4(x-8) +2(x-2)

if you expand this them ,

(2 × x )+( 2 × 2 )+ (5 × x) + (5 × 5 )=( 4 × x )-( 4 × 8 )+ (2 × x) - (2 × 2)

2x + 4 + 5x + 25 = 4x - 32 + 2x - 4

2x + 5x + 4 + 25 = 4x+ 2x - 32 - 4

7x + 29 = 6x - 36

7x - 6x = -36 - 27

x = - 63
