Question

Solve this step by step:
5(2x − 14) = 5x + 15

Answer 1

Given:

• 5 (2x − 14) = 5x + 15

Find:

• Value of x

Solution:

↱ 5 (2x − 14) = 5x + 15

↱ 10x - 70 = 5x + 15

↱ 10x - 5x = 15 + 70

↱ 5x = 85

↱ x = 85/5

↱ x = 17

• Hence, the value of x is 17.

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

5(2x − 14) = 5x + 15

(5×2x)-(5×14)= 5x+15

10x-70 = 5x+15

10x-5x = 70+15

5x = 85

x = 85÷5

x = 17
