Answer:

x=6

Step-by-step explanation:

5(x-3)+2x=27

Distribute

5x-15 +2x =27

Combine like terms

7x-15 = 27

Add 15 to each side

7x-15+15 =27+15

7x =42

Divide each side by 7

7x/7 = 42/7

x = 6

Answer: x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Distribute the 5 into the parenthesis:

Combine like terms, the 5x and 2x:

[tex]5x+2x-15=7x-15[/tex]

Add 15 to both sides:

[tex]7x-15=27[/tex]

[tex]7x=42[/tex]

Divide both sides by 7:

[tex]x=6[/tex]
