Studdy Solution

STEP 1

Assumptions1. The given equation is 5(6x)+9=30x15(6x-)+9=30x-1 . We need to solve for xx

STEP 2

First, we need to distribute the5 into the parentheses on the left side of the equation.
5(6x2)+9=56x52+95(6x-2)+9 =5*6x -5*2 +9

STEP 3

Perform the multiplication to simplify the left side of the equation.
30x10+9=30x130x -10 +9 =30x -1

STEP 4

Combine like terms on the left side of the equation.
30x1=30x130x -1 =30x -1

STEP 5

Subtract 30x30x from both sides of the equation to isolate xx.
30x30x1=30x30x130x -30x -1 =30x -30x -1

STEP 6

implify both sides of the equation.
1=1-1 = -1

STEP 7

Since both sides of the equation are equal, this means that the equation is an identity and is true for all values of xx.
The solution is all real numbers.
