Answer:

x = 19/2 or 9.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

We can distribute the parenthesis and solve.

Solve

  • 2(4x - 3) = 5(2x - 5)
  • 2(4x) - 2(3) = 5(2x) - 5(5)
  • 8x - 6 = 10x - 25

Move all x terms to one side and integer terms to the other

  • 8x - 6 = 10x - 25
  • -6 + 25 = 10x - 8x
  • 19 = 2x
  • x = 19/2
  • x = 9.5
