Find the roots
x=41
Alternative Form
x=0.25
Evaluate
(10x−5)−(2x−3)
To find the roots of the expression,set the expression equal to 0
(10x−5)−(2x−3)=0
Remove the parentheses
10x−5−(2x−3)=0

8x
8x−5+3
Add the numbers
8x−2
8x−2=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
8x=0+2
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
8x=2
Divide both sides
88x=82
Divide the numbers
x=82
