Answer:
x=6
Step-by-step explanation:
5(x-3)+2x=27
Distribute
5x-15 +2x =27
Combine like terms
7x-15 = 27
Add 15 to each side
7x-15+15 =27+15
7x =42
Divide each side by 7
7x/7 = 42/7
x = 6
Answer: x = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Distribute the 5 into the parenthesis:
[tex]5(x-3)+2x=5x-15+2x[/tex]
Combine like terms, the 5x and 2x:
[tex]5x+2x-15=7x-15[/tex]
Add 15 to both sides:
[tex]7x-15=27[/tex]
[tex]7x=42[/tex]
Divide both sides by 7:
[tex]x=6[/tex]
