What is an expression?
Expression in maths is defined as the collection of numbers variables and functions by using signs like addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.
Given that; Five times the sum of x and 5 is 8 less than twice x.
WE are asked to Solve for x.
Then the expression form as;
5(x+5)=2x-8
Now solve for x;
5x+25=2x-8
Subtract 25 on both sides;
5x+25-25=2x-8-25
5x=2x-33
3x=-33
x=-11
Therefore, the value of x in the given expression is -11.
