Answer:

10-10x=3x

10=13x

13x=10

x=10/13

Answer:

The value of x is 10/13.

Step-by-step explanation:

First step, you have to expand the brackets and collect like-terms :

[tex]5(2 - 2x) = 3x[/tex]

[tex]10 - 10x = 3x[/tex]

[tex]10 = 3x + 10x[/tex]

[tex]10 = 13x[/tex]

Second step, you have to divide it by 13 :

[tex]13x = 10[/tex]

[tex] \frac{13x}{13} = \frac{10}{13} [/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{10}{13} [/tex]
