x=6

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x:

5 (2 x - 8) - 15 = 5

5 (2 x - 8) = 10 x - 40:

10 x - 40 - 15 = 5

Grouping like terms, 10 x - 40 - 15 = 10 x + (-40 - 15):

10 x + (-40 - 15) = 5

-40 - 15 = -55:

10 x + -55 = 5

Add 55 to both sides:

10 x + (55 - 55) = 55 + 5

55 - 55 = 0:

10 x = 5 + 55

5 + 55 = 60:

10 x = 60

Divide both sides of 10 x = 60 by 10:

(10 x)/10 = 60/10

10/10 = 1:

x = 60/10

The gcd of 60 and 10 is 10, so 60/10 = (10×6)/(10×1) = 10/10×6 = 6:
