Question

Solve for x :- 5x + 5 = 100​

Answer 1

Simplifying

5x + -5 = 100

Reorder the terms:

-5 + 5x = 100

Solving

-5 + 5x = 100

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '5' to each side of the equation.

-5 + 5 + 5x = 100 + 5

Combine like terms: -5 + 5 = 0

0 + 5x = 100 + 5

5x = 100 + 5

Combine like terms: 100 + 5 = 105

5x = 105

Divide each side by '5'.

x = 21

Simplifying

x = 21

Answer 2

$\large {\pmb{\bf{Question :}}}$

Solve for $x$ :- $\tt{5x + 5 = 100}$

$\large {\pmb{\bf{Answer :}}}$

Here, we can find the value of $x$ in the given linear equation by the method below;

• 5x + 5 = 100
• ⇒ 5x = 100 - 5
• ⇒ 5x = 95
• ⇒ x = $\sf\dfrac{95}{5}$
• ⇒ x = 19

~Hence, the value of $x$ in the equation will be 19.
