The correct Answer is:
To solve the equation \( 13(x-4) - 3(x-9) - 5(x+4) = 0 \), we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Expand the brackets We will distribute the numbers outside the brackets to the terms inside the brackets. \[ 13(x-4) = 13x - 52 \] \[ -3(x-9) = -3x + 27 \] \[ -5(x+4) = -5x - 20 \] Now, substituting these back into the equation gives: \[ 13x - 52 - 3x + 27 - 5x - 20 = 0 \] ### Step 2: Combine like terms Now, we will combine the \(x\) terms and the constant terms. The \(x\) terms are: \[ 13x - 3x - 5x = (13 - 3 - 5)x = 5x \] The constant terms are: \[ -52 + 27 - 20 = -52 + 27 - 20 = -45 \] So, the equation simplifies to: \[ 5x - 45 = 0 \] ### Step 3: Isolate \(x\) Next, we will isolate \(x\) by adding 45 to both sides of the equation: \[ 5x = 45 \] ### Step 4: Solve for \(x\) Now, divide both sides by 5: \[ x = \frac{45}{5} = 9 \] ### Final Answer Thus, the solution to the equation is: \[ \boxed{x = 9} \] ---
