x-5(x+3)=5 equation

The teacher will be very surprised to see your correct solution 😉

You have entered [src]

x - 5*(x + 3) = 5

$$x - 5 \left(x + 3\right) = 5$$

Simplify

Detail solution

Given the linear equation:

x-5*(x+3) = 5

Expand brackets in the left part

x-5*x-5*3 = 5

Looking for similar summands in the left part:

-15 - 4*x = 5

Move free summands (without x)
from left part to right part, we given:
$$- 4 x = 20$$
Divide both parts of the equation by -4

x = 20 / (-4)

We get the answer: x = -5
