Answer: x=6
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Remove parentheses.
4(2x-5)-6=6+9+2x-54(2x−5)−6=6+9+2x−5
Step 2: Simplify 6+9+2x-56+9+2x−5 to 2x+102x+10.
4(2x-5)-6=2x+104(2x−5)−6=2x+10
Step 3: Expand.
8x-20-6=2x+108x−20−6=2x+10
Step 4: Simplify 8x-20-68x−20−6 to 8x-268x−26.
8x-26=2x+108x−26=2x+10
Step 5: Add 26 to both sides.
8x=2x+10+268x=2x+10+26
Step 6: Simplify 2x+10+262x+10+26 to 2x+362x+36.
8x=2x+368x=2x+36
Step 7: Subtract 2x2x from both sides.
8x-2x=368x−2x=36
Step 8: Simplify 8x-2x8x−2x to 6x.
6x=36
Step 9: Divide both sides by 6.
x= 36/6 as a fraction
Step 10: Simplify \frac{36}{6} to 6.
x= 6x
