5(x - 8) + 15 = 35 Write the steps you will use to solve the equation and explain each step. (5 points)

Multiply 5 by x - 8

Now after multiplying 5 with x-8 we get 5x - 40

Now add -40 with 15

After adding-40 with 15 , we get -20.

Now transfer-20 to other side

After transferring -20 to other side it's sign changes and from -20 it changes to +20.

Now add 35 with 20.

After adding 35 with 20 , we get 55.

Now transfer and then divide 5(denominator) with 55.

Now Divide 5 with 55.

After dividing 55 and 5 , we get our final answer i.e. value of x as 11.

add all the numbers and check the ones place.

the answer is 486. as the ones place is more than 4, the estimation will be the next 10 ie, 490

the answer is 0.071
