Math help please?
If x−2(x−5)=3(x+1)−5, then x=?
Answers

{ 3 }
Como
- x - 2x + 10 = 3x - 2 12 = 4x x = 3
la console
x - 2.(x - 5) = 3.(x + 1) - 5 x - 2x + 10 = 3x + 3 - 5 - x + 10 = 3x - 2 - x - 3x = - 2 - 10 - 4x = - 12 x = 3

Multiply out the brackets x - 2x + 10 = 3x + 3 - 5 -x + 10 = 3x - 2 2x = 12 x = 6

The value of x is 3
MyRank
x - 2 (x-5) = 3 (x+1) - 5 x - 2x + 10 = 3x + 8 - 5 x - 2x - 3x = -12 -4x = -12 x = -12/-4 x = 3.

x−2(x−5)=3(x+1)−5 x-2x+10=3x+3-5 solve for x
Philip
x-2(x-5) = 3(x+1) -5, ie., 10-x = 3x - 2, ie., 0 = 4x-12, ie, x = 3.
