Question

5(5x+3) -4(2x-9)=0
pls help​

Answer 1

Answer:

x = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

See steps of solution:

• 5(5x+3) -4(2x-9)=0                       ⇒ parenthesis
• 25x + 15 - 8x + 36 = 0
• (25x -8x) + (15 + 36) = 0               ⇒ grouping like terms
• 17x +51 = 0
• 17x = -51                                        ⇒ subtract 51 from both sides
• x = -51/17                                       ⇒ divide both sides by 17
• x = -3                                             ⇒ answer

Answer is -3

Answer 2

Answer:

x = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

5(5x+3) - 4(2x-9) = 0     Multiply out.

5*5x + 5*3 - 4*2x + 36 = 0

25x + 15 - 8x + 36 = 0 Combine like terms.

25x - 8x + 15 + 36 = 0

17x + 51 = 0 Subtract 51 from both sides.

17x = - 51   Divide each side by 17.

17x/17 = -51/17

x = - 3
