Bot To solve for x in the equation 2x + 5(x-3), first distribute the 5 to get:
2x + 5x - 15
Then combine like terms by adding the x terms:
7x - 15
To solve for x, add 15 to both sides:
7x = 15
Finally, divide both sides by 7:
x = 15/7
Therefore, the solution is x = 2.14 (rounded to two decimal places).
