Answer:
x = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
2.5(6x-4) = 10 + 4 (1.5+0.5x)
First of all we will have to solve the parenthesis
(2.5)(6x)-(2.5)(4) = 10 + (4)(1.5)+(4)(0.5x)
15x-10 = 10+6+2x
We have to isolate x so that we can find its value
15x-10 = 16+2x
15x = 16+2x+10
15x-2x = 26
13x = 26
13x/13 = 26/13
x = 2 ..
