Answer:

[tex]x=15[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]19x-45=240[/tex]

[tex]19x-45+45=240+45[/tex] (Add [tex]45[/tex] to both sides of the equation to isolate [tex]x[/tex])

[tex]19x=285[/tex] (Simplify)

[tex]\frac{19x}{19} =\frac{285}{19}[/tex] (Divide both sides of the equation by [tex]19[/tex] to get rid of [tex]x[/tex]'s coefficient)

[tex]\bf x=15[/tex] (Simplify)

Hope this helps!

Answer:

x = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem we want to get the variable "x" on one side by itself.

(Step 1: Re-write equation)

19x - 45 = 240

(Step 2 : add 45 on both sides.)

19x - 45 = 240

       +45  +45

--------------------------

19x = 285

(Step 2: Divide 19 on both sides)

19x/19 = 285/19

x = 15

Hope this helps :)
