Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Define
Identify
[tex]\displaystyle 10 = ax + bx[/tex]
Step 2: Solve for x
- Factor: [tex]\displaystyle 10 = ax + bx \rightarrow 10 = x(a + b)[/tex]
- [Division Property of Equality] Divide a + b on both sides: [tex]\displaystyle 10 = ax + bx \rightarrow x = \frac{10}{a + b}[/tex]
