5(1+2x)=-5(x+6 how do i solve this problem

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

First, divide both sides by -5, because both sides are multiplied by -5. This gives you 1 + 2x = x + 6.

Next, subtract x from both sides, and subtract `1 from both sides. This will mean that the x's are all on one side and the number values are on the other, so x = 5.

7 ft 6 in means 7 1/2, because 6 in is 1/2 of a foot. 7 ft 8 in means 7 2/3 because 8 in is 2/3 of a foot. 23/3 = 7 2/3. 15/2 = 7 1/2.

23/3   *   15/2   = 57 1/2
