What is the solution to the equation
-(-X - 5) + 5 (x - 9) = 2 (X + 8) - (2x + 5)
Answers
Answer:
(-x-5)+5(x-9)=2(x+8)-(2x+5)
One solution was found :
x = 61/4 = 15.250
Rearrange:
Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation :
(-x-5)+5*(x-9)-(2*(x+8)-(2*x+5))=0
Step by step solution :
Step 1 :
Equation at the end of step 1 :
((-x-5)+(5•(x-9)))-(2•(x+8)-(2x+5)) = 0
Step 2 :
Equation at the end of step 2 :
((-x - 5) + 5 • (x - 9)) - 11 = 0
Step 3 :
Equation at the end of step 3 :
4x - 61 = 0
Step 4 :
Solving a Single Variable Equation :
4.1 Solve : 4x-61 = 0
Add 61 to both sides of the equation :
4x = 61
Divide both sides of the equation by 4:
x = 61/4 = 15.250
One solution was found :
x = 61/4 = 15.250
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x+5+5x-45 = 2x+16-2x-5
6x-40 = 11
6x = 11+40
6x = 51
x = 51/6
