Answer: The result is x = 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

-Solve:

[tex]10(2+x)=15 (x-1)+5[/tex]

-First, use the Distributive Property:

[tex]20+ 10x=15x-15+5[/tex]

-Combine 5 with -15:

[tex]20 + 10x = 15x - 10[/tex]

-Subtract 15x from 10x:

[tex]20 + 10x -15x= 15x - 15x -10[/tex]

[tex]20 -5x= -10[/tex]

-Subtract 20 both sides:

[tex]20 - 5x = -10 -20[/tex]

[tex]-5x=-30[/tex]

-Then, you divide both sides by -5:

[tex]\frac{-5x}{-5} = \frac{-30}{-5}[/tex]

[tex]x = 6[/tex]

So, the solution for x is 6.
