Question

5(3x−5)−4=4−5(5x−3)
Solve for x.

Answer 1

15x-25-4=4-25x+15

15x+25x=25+4+4+15

40x=48

$\frac{40x}{40} = \frac{48}{40} \\ x = \frac{6}{5} \\ 1.2$

Answer 2

Answer:

Therefore, x= 1.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given  : 5(3x−5)−4=4−5(5x−3).

To find: Solve for x .

Solution : We have given

5(3x−5)−4=4−5(5x−3).

Distributes 5 over (3x−5) and 5 over (5x−3).

15 x - 25 -4 = 4 - 25x + 15.

Combine like terms

15x - 29 = - 25x + 19.

On adding both sides by 25

15 x + 25x - 29 = 19.

40 x - 29 = 19,

On adding both sides by 29.

40 x = 48

On dividing both sides by 40 .

x = $\frac{48}{40}$.

x= 1.2

Therefore, x= 1.2
