Question

PLSSSS HELP IF YOU TURLY KNOW THISSS

Answer 1

x = 6

Explanation:

–5(x – 2) = ·20

–5x + 10 = –20

–5x = –20–10

–5x = –30

divide through by –5

–5x/–5 = –30/–5

therefore, x= 6

Answer 2

x = 6

Explanation:

Now we have to,

→ Find the required value of x.

The property we use,

→ Distributive property.

The equation is,

→ -5(x - 2) = -20

Then the value of x will be,

→ -5(x - 2) = -20

→ -5(x) - 5(-2) = -20

→ -5x + 10 = -20

→ -5x = -20 - 10

→ -5x = -30

→ 5x = 30

→ x = 30 ÷ 5

→ [ x = 6 ]

Hence, the value of x is 6.
