Answer 2

Hi there !

User note that these type of question are very easy we have solve variable and constant separately.

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

$2x - 4 - 5x + 25 = 4x - 32 - 2x + 4 \\ \\ - 3x + 21 = 2x - 28 \\ \\ - 3x - 2x = - 28 - 21 \\ \\ - 5x = - 49 \\ \\ x = \frac{49}{5}$

Thankyou :)
