Question

Solve the equation and enter the value of x below.

15x + 5 = 775

x = ?

Answer 1

`\large\boxed{x=(154)/(3)}`

Explanation:

`15x+5=775` subtract 5 from both sides

`15x+5-5=775-5`

`15x=770` divide both sides by 15

`(15x)/(15)=(770)/(15)`

`x=(770:5)/(15:5)\\\\x=(154)/(3)`

Answer 2

`15x+5=775`

`15x+5-5=775-5`

`15x=770`

`(15x)/(15)=(770)/(15)`

`x=(154)/(3)`
