Question

8x(x - 6) = (2x+5)(x-6)

Answer 1

x=6 x=5/6

Explanation:

1. Distribute both sides

8x² -48x = 2x² + 5x -12x - 30

2. Combine like terms

8x² -48x = 2x² -7x -30

3. Subtract 2x² on both sides

6x² -48x = -7x -30

4. Add 7x and 30 on both sides

6x² -41x + 30 = 0

5. Solve quadratic equation

x=6 x=5/6
