Two less than 5 times a number is the same as the number plus 10. what's the number (x)?

Th answer is 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtract 5 from 10 then multiply 5 and 2

Glad i could help

3

Step-by-step explanation:

5x-2=x+10

4x=12

x=3

(5*3)-2=15-2=13

3+10=13

13=13

infinitely many solutions

step-by-step explanation:

we have been given the equation;

2(2x + 3) = -4 + 2(2x + 5)

we need to determine the value of x.

2(2x + 3), we expand this expression to obtain 4x + 6

similarly 2(2x + 5) will become 4x + 10

now we have;

4x + 6 = -4 + 4x + 10

4x + 6 = 4x + 10 - 4

4x + 6 = 4x + 6

the expression on the left hand side is identical to the one on the right hand side. therefore, we are looking at just a single straight line whose equation is;

y = 4x + 6

consequently, we shall have infinitely many solutions
