Question

Determine the number of solutions of the given equation:  5(x-5) = 2(2x-4)​

Answer 1

$5(x - 5) = 2(2x - 4)$

$5x - 25 = 4x - 8$

Subtract both sides 4x

$5x - 4x - 25 = 4x - 4x - 8$

$x - 25 = - 8$

Add both sides 25

$x - 25 + 25 = - 8 + 25$

$x = + 17$

There u go...

Have a great day ❤
