Step-by-step explanation:

x-8/2 = x-5/5

5(x-8) = 2(x-5)

5x-40 = 2x-10

3x= 30

x = 10

Answer:

x = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\frac{x-8}{2}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{x-5}{5}[/tex] ( cross- multiply )

5(x - 8) = 2(x - 5) ← distribute parenthesis on both sides

5x - 40 = 2x - 10 ( subtract 2x from both sides )

3x - 40 = - 10 ( add 40 to both sides )

3x = 30 ( divide both sides by 3 )

x = 10
