Question

Solve: 5(x-1) + 2(x +3) +6 = 0

Answer 1

=>5(x-1)+2(x+3)+6=0

=>5x-5+2x+6+6=0

=>5x+2x=0-6-6+5

=>7x=-7

=>x=-7/7

=>x=-1

Thus,value of x is -1.

Answer 2

Answer:

X = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

5(x-1)+2(x+3)+6 = 0

1. By removing the brackets

5x -5 +2x + 6 + 6 = 0

2. Join the like terms

5x + 2x -5 + 6 + 6 = 0

3. Add or subtract the like terms

7x -5 + 12 = 0

7x + 7 = 0

7x = -7

x= -7/7

x = -1
