Answer:
X= -3
Step-by-step explanation:
Hope this helps.! tep 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
2(10x+8)−1=5(x−6)
(2)(10x)+(2)(8)+−1=(5)(x)+(5)(−6)(Distribute)
20x+16+−1=5x+−30
(20x)+(16+−1)=5x−30(Combine Like Terms)
20x+15=5x−30
20x+15=5x−30
Step 2: Subtract 5x from both sides.
20x+15−5x=5x−30−5x
15x+15−15=−30−15
15x=−45
Step 4: Divide both sides by 15.
15x
15
=
−45
15
x=−3
15x+15=−30
Step 3: Subtract 15 from both sides. ITs X= -3
