Answer :
Answer:
x=2
Step-by-step explanation:
3(x-2)-6x=4(x-5)
Distribute
3x -6 -6x = 4x -20
Combine like terms
-3x-6 = 4x-20
Add 3x to each side
-3x-6+3x = 4x-20+3x
-6 = 7x-20
Add 20 to each side
-6+20 = 7x-20+20
14 = 7x
Divide by 7
14/7 =7x/7
2=x
Answer:
x = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]3(x - 2) - 6x = 4(x - 5)[/tex]
Distribute 3 through the parentheses
[tex]3x - 6 - 6x = 4(x - 5)[/tex]
Distribute 4 through the parentheses
[tex]3x - 6 - 6x = 4x - 20[/tex]
Collect like terms
[tex] - 3x - 6 = 4x - 20[/tex]
Move variable to L.H.S and change it's sign
[tex] - 3x - 4x - 6 = - 20[/tex]
Move constant to RHS and change it's sign
[tex] - 3x - 4x = - 20 + 6[/tex]
Collect like terms
[tex] - 7x = - 20 + 6[/tex]
Calculate
[tex] - 7x = - 14[/tex]
Divide both sides of the equation by -7
[tex] \frac{ - 7x}{ - 7} = \frac{ - 14}{ - 7} [/tex]
Calculate
[tex]x = 2[/tex]
Hope this helps..
