8x –3(5x–2)=7–10x

Solve this equation with a clear value for x

x = 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

8x –3(5x–2)=7–10x

Distribute

8x - 15x +6 = 7-10x

Combine like terms

-7x + 6 = 7- 10x

Add 10x to each side

-7x +10x+ 6 = 7- 10x+10x

3x+6 = 7

Subtract 6 from each side

3x+6-6 =7-6

3x = 1

Divide each side by 3

3x/3 = 1/3

x = 1/3

x = 1/3

Step-by-step explanation: Start by changing the -3 to plus a negative 3 so you know that you are distributing a -3 through the parentheses.

-3(5x) is -15x and -3(-2) is 6.

So we have 8x - 15x + 6 = 7 - 10x.

Simplifying the left side further gives us -7x + 6 = 7 - 10x.

Now subtract 6 from both sides to get -7x = 1 - 10x.

Now add 10x to both sides to get 3x = 1.

From here it should be easy to find that x = 1/3.
