Question

Sove and verify a. 2(x-2)-3(x-3)=5(x-5)

Answer 1

2x-4-3x+9=5x-25

-x+5=5x-25

-x-5x=-25-5

-6x=-30 ( - will cancel out -)
x=5

lets put the value of x in the equation

2(5-2)-3(5-3)=5(5-5)

2(3)-3(2)=5(0)

6-6=0
0=0

hence verified

Answer 2

2(x-2)-3(x-3)=5(x-5)
2x-4-3x+9=5x-25
-x+5=5x-25
-x-5x=-25-5
-6x=-30
x=-30÷-6
x=5




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