Question 124938


{{{5(x-5)+8x=9x-25}}} Start with the given equation




{{{5x-25+8x=9x-25}}} Distribute



{{{13x-25=9x-25}}} Combine like terms on the left side



{{{13x=9x-25+25}}}Add 25 to both sides



{{{13x-9x=-25+25}}} Subtract 9x from both sides



{{{4x=-25+25}}} Combine like terms on the left side



{{{4x=0}}} Combine like terms on the right side



{{{x=(0)/(4)}}} Divide both sides by 4 to isolate x




{{{x=0}}} Divide
