Answer To Question

1) The document shows the step-by-step work of solving the equation 5 (−3 x−2 ) −( x−3) = −4 ( 4 x+5 )+ 13. 2) Using distribution and combining like terms reduces both sides of the equation to -16x-7=-16x-7. 3) Setting both sides equal gives 0=0, meaning the value of x is irrelevant and the solution is all real numbers.

Answer to question

5 (3 x2 ) ( x3) = 4 ( 4 x+5 )+ 13

Using distributive law


(15 x10 )x+ 3 = (16 x20 ) +13

removing brackets and combining like terms


15 xx10+ 3
= 16 x20+ 13

Solving
16 x7
= 16 x7

16 x +16
= 7 +7

0=0

Since there is no "x" in the solution, the value of x is


irrelevant: x can be anything. So the solution is "all x" or
x are true for all value since it is equal on both sides
