x-5(x-1)=x-(2x-3)

x - 5 (x - 1) = x - (2 x - 3)

x = \frac{2}{3}

Decimal Notation

x = 0.66666 \dots

Solution steps

x - 5 (x - 1) = x - (2 x - 3)

Subtract

x

from both sides

x - 5 (x - 1) - x = x - (2 x - 3) - x

Simplify

- 5 (x - 1) = - (2 x - 3)

Expand

- 5 (x - 1) : - 5 x + 5

Expand

- (2 x - 3) : - 2 x + 3

- 5 x + 5 = - 2 x + 3

Move

5

to the right side

- 5 x = - 2 x - 2

Move

2 x

to the left side

- 3 x = - 2

Divide both sides by

- 3

x = \frac{2}{3}

2 x + x + 12 = 78

4 x = 2 x

4 x = 90

4 x = 92

x, 5 x + 4 y = - 14
