Question

$$20x+100=10x+120$$

Solve for x

$x=2$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Subtract $10x$ from both sides.

$$20x+100-10x=120$$

Combine $20x$ and $-10x$ to get $10x$.

$$10x+100=120$$

Subtract $100$ from both sides.

$$10x=120-100$$

Subtract $100$ from $120$ to get $20$.

$$10x=20$$

Divide both sides by $10$.

$$x=\frac{20}{10}$$

Divide $20$ by $10$ to get $2$.

$$x=2$$
