Apologies for the incorrect response earlier. Let me solve it again.
To solve the equation:
6(x-5) = 5(x+5)
We can start by distributing the terms on both sides of the equation:
6x - 30 = 5x + 25
Next, we can simplify by subtracting 5x from both sides:
x - 30 = 25
To isolate x, we can add 30 to both sides of the equation:
x = 25 + 30
This simplifies to:
x = 55
Now, let's check our answer by substituting x back into the original equation:
6(55-5) = 5(55+5)
6(50) = 5(60)
300 = 300
Since both sides are equal, our solution of x = 55 is correct.
